Unique Features: The Skyline honeylocust is a cultivar of a durable and adaptable North American native tree. These qualities are verified by their success in difficult sites, such as street islands and street strips. Skyline is about equal in size to Shademaster, and has the same deep strong roots, but grows into a more pyramidal form. The pinnate leaves with tiny leaflets cast a dappled shade that doesn’t impede grass or even gardens growing underneath it. The leaflets are small enough that the wind disperses most of them, eliminating leaf raking. The stems do stick around and they, and any remaining leaflets, can be cleaned up with a mulching mower. This Honeylocust is thornless, and mostly seedless, but you can remove the branches with seed pods. Being later to leaf out and earlier to drop leaves avoids the stresses brought of late and early freezes. As with any rapidly growing tree it will benefit from regular pruning (3 to 6 Years).
