Gleditsia 
Gleditsia triacanthos Common Honeylocust 
A fast growing tree with compound, much-divided foliage, and fra- 
srant, pea-like flowers. The lights and shadows through its foliage and 
its dainty fragrant flowers give an excellent effect. It can be used 
as a thorny, impenetrable hedge or allowed to grow into a splendid 
specimen tree of moderate size and irregular habit. It will thrive 
along the ocean in defiance of spray and gales, and seems to enjoy 
the rough, barren, sandy soil of Cape Cod and similar localities. We 
can highly recommend it for both beauty and endurance under the 
most difficult growing conditions.

it a particularly desirable tree.
