Black Locust
A supremely helpful tree in many landscapes. Many people despise Black Locust, but if you're reading this I bet you're not one of them! You likely know about its ability to fix nitrogen from the air so it can enrich poor soils. Or the fact that the wood is among the most rot resistant in the entire world. Or maybe the flowers provide a huge nectar flow for bees and the scent carries through the whole yard. Since it suckers and grows fast it also provides a continuous supply of hot burning firewood. Overall, Black Locust has many incredible attributes for the landscape if we only broaden our perspectives and see this tree for the many gifts it provides.
