Robinia pseudoacacia | Black Locust | 100 Seeds

Robinia pseudoacacia, commonly known as the Black Locust, is a deciduous tree native to the southeastern United States but widely planted across various regions for its ornamental appeal and versatile uses. This tree showcases a distinctive and elegant appearance with compound leaves composed of smaller leaflets and clusters of fragrant, white, pea-like flowers that bloom in late spring to early summer. The tree's bark is deeply furrowed, contributing to its rugged charm. Black Locust thrives in a range of soil types and is remarkably adaptive, tolerating diverse environmental conditions, though it prefers well-drained soils and full sunlight. Beyond its ornamental value, this fast-growing tree is prized for its durable, rot-resistant wood used in carpentry, fence posts, and furniture making. However, its rapid growth and ability to form dense thickets can also label it as an invasive species in certain ecosystems.  Zones 4-9 Germination To germinate Robinia pseudoacacia seeds, start b
