I have seeds from a thornless honey locust that produces copious amounts of large pods with high sugar content and wanted to share and I will send at least 25 seeds. I am not asking for anything in return but if you have seeds that you may want to share in return that'd be awesome.just me a message with you mailing info, and ask for my info in you have seeds you would like to share. Then I will let you know when I get them mailed out. they will be shipped in a non-machinable stamped envelope and no tracking.

Now the facts Will the tree grown from these seeds be thornless and produce pods with high sugar content? It's probable but besides grafting from  said tree there are no guarantees, but this will definitely improve the likelihood. If the trees you've grown from seed do not possess the traits you need, then you'll still be ahead of the game, because you will now have established root stock if you are able to  get access to proven cultivator as these seem to be elusive and expensive.

I’d love to swap for some of these! Is there anything in particular you’re in search of?

Do you have the variety with thorns too?  I have a great deal of predation.  I would love to try these out as well.  What zone are you?  I have mimosa tree, desert willow, catclaw  acacia (great for protective fencing).  I also have barrel cactus seeds and a lot of veggie garden seeds.

I do have thorny honey locust! I have a few seeds saved but I can probably find more pods if I poke around. I actually love the thorns on those. So pretty. The pods make a decent amount of pulp. Not a remarkable amount but good tasting.

I’m in zone 8a in the humid south east… I’d be interested in the cats claw Acacia! I wonder if it would grow here.
