Newly planted trees can be expected to add 2 feet or more per season for at least the first 10 years. Finally, the open crown of the Honey locust allows enough light to filter through to favor the growth of grass beneath its branches.

Sometimes still referred to in the South as the Confederate Pintree because its thorns were used to pin uniforms together during the Civil War, the tree derives the name "Honey" from the sweet, honey-like substance found in its pods. The Cherokees in Tennessee made bows from the tree's durable and strong wood.
