Hi! this Black locust or acacia or whatever name it is a flowering tree with beautiful and very fragrant flowers and they give hundreds of pounds of honey to the Honey bees! ( and to the Beekeeper! ) -every Spring! If you keep it and help it grow -you will support pollinators, and the food chain and if you someday decide to have a couple of beehives on your property you will get Honey in your backyard! I am propagating Honey Locust ( or Black locust or Acacia) that is practically the same to me ) in the pots to take them to Florida to my son's house where he has a few beehives!!
