Fast shade. Zero maintenance. The tree that does it all without the thorns.

Gleditsia triacanthos var. inermis, the Thornless Honey Locust, is the most practical large shade tree available to the North American landowner who wants fast results with minimal fuss. It casts light, dappled shade that allows grass to grow beneath it. Its feathery compound leaves emerge late in spring and drop early in fall, disappearing into the lawn without raking. It tolerates drought, compacted soils, road salt, air pollution, and urban heat that would stress or kill most other large shade trees. And it grows fast enough to provide meaningful canopy within a few years of planting. If you are looking to buy Thornless Honey Locust seeds or grow this adaptable native shade tree from seed, this is the tree that solves the most common landscaping problems simultaneously.

  • One of the fastest-growing large native shade trees available, gaining 3 to 7 feet per year in ideal conditions
  • Casts light, dappled shade that allows grass and underplantings to thrive beneath the canopy
  • Feathery compound leaves emerge late, drop early, and disappear quickly without creating a cleanup burden
  • Extraordinary tolerance for urban stress including drought, compacted soil, road salt, and air pollution
  • The thornless variety removes the only significant drawback of the native species

Things you probably did not know about the Thornless Honey Locust

The pods were a staple food for megafauna and humans alike.
The long, twisted seed pods of the Honey Locust contain a sweet pulp around the seeds that was eaten fresh by Indigenous peoples across the eastern and central United States. Like the Osage Orange, the large pods evolved to be eaten by mammoths, giant ground sloths, and other Pleistocene megafauna that are now extinct. The tree still produces these enormous pods for animals that largely no longer exist to eat them.

It can fix nitrogen.
Honey Locust belongs to the legume family and forms nitrogen-fixing associations with soil bacteria in its root system, improving soil fertility around it over time. This is one reason it colonizes disturbed and degraded soils so successfully. It is feeding its own growth by improving the soil chemistry beneath it.

The original species has fearsome thorns that can puncture tractor tires.
Wild Gleditsia triacanthos develops massive, branching thorns up to 8 inches long on the trunk and branches that historically served to deter browsing by large mammals. The thorns are so hard and sharp they were used by Indigenous peoples as pins, needles, and surgical instruments. The thornless variety, inermis, was selected specifically to remove this feature for landscape use.

Abraham Lincoln split Honey Locust rails.
Young Honey Locust wood is exceptionally hard, straight-grained, and splits cleanly, making it ideal for fence rails. Lincoln's legendary rail-splitting work in his youth in Illinois is believed to have involved primarily Honey Locust and Black Locust rails, which were the standard fencing material of the Midwest frontier.

Great quality product!!
Size: 10inch-140
These disposable paper plates are an absolute lifesaver for family barbecues and large dinner parties. The ten-inch size is incredibly spacious, easily holding a full meal with multiple side dishes without anything spilling over the edges. I am seriously impressed by the heavy-duty construction because they stay completely sturdy even when loaded up with heavy, saucy foods. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they are truly soak-proof and won't get soggy or bend. With a massive one hundred and forty plates in the pack, it is an amazing bulk value that lasts through several events. Cleanup is an absolute breeze since we can just toss them out, saving me from hours of standing at the kitchen sink. They are perfect for birthdays, picnics, or even just lazy weeknight dinners when I want to skip doing the dishes. Anyone searching for durable, reliable disposable tableware for their next gathering will absolutely love this set.

Sturdy and good quality paper plates
Size: 10inch-140, Size: 10inch-140
These 140 pack paper plates are exactly what I needed for my family party. The plates are Saturday, heavy duty and easy to handle lager portion of food without bending and leaking. I used them during a family gathering and the plates help up the salad and burger throughout serving lunch. The 10 inch size of the plates are just perfect for any occasion to serve enough food on them. Also with 140 plates I have enough to go around for several parties and I feel I still have more than enough. I like to used paper plates as the clean up afterwards is much easier also it will much more cost effective in long term.

Strong and durable.
Size: 10inch-140, Size: 10inch-140
I’m very impressed by these plates. I want to start by saying I use them mostly for my home cooking but these are strong and durable enough to be used at outdoor events and other social gathering. At 10in the plates are big enough to fit the whole meal, and with growing boys it is necessary to feed them full portions for their growing bodies. The design is nice and the plates are thick, there is also a coating on them. I prefer that because I often cook with gravies and sauces and if you want the sauces and juice to remain you need a coated disposable plate. Another positive is that because you can put bigger food portions because of the size, you also need the plates to hold up. These do exactly that. Even with heavy foods the plates remain firm and not flimsy. These are really good paper plates.

The plates are big and sturdy. They could hold 2 slices of pizza easily. These are great for everyday use. The plates are easy to remove from stack. They don’t stick together. The design is the same as shown. The blue and white colors complement each other.
