Overview
Standing 150 feet from Abraham Lincoln while he delivered the Gettysburg Address at the dedication of the Soldiers’ National Cemetery, stands a lone Honeylocust tree referred to as the “witness tree”. This 160 year old veteran has lived longer than its 100 year expectancy and still stands alongside the Gettysburg National Cemetery today.
Native insects will make homes in the branches while local native birds will stop in to visit and snack on some of the critters that are present. Honeylocust may benefit & attract crows, starlings, bobwhite quail. Full of honey-sweet nectar, this native is a hit amongst wildlife. Commonly found in wet, river valleys and used as a beloved city shade tree native birds and other wildlife absolutely love this tree.

Care Instructions:
Watering: Offering a tolerance to both drought and flooding when established, the Honeylocust should be kept on a schedule until that time comes. When first planted, watering at least twice weekly will suffice, increasing the amount you water during periods of intemperate weather such as high heat or drought.
Soil/Conditions: Acidic, alkaline, moist, dry and salty soils.
