Black Locust
Q: I had to cut down a very big black locust tree and I am wondering if this type of wood does well in a fireplace? It seemed to be a bit on the sappy side to me.

Tell me where you would rather be on such a spring day.
If I were back on the family farm outside Elizaville, I would be sitting in a chair in the yard, watching the afternoon light play over the hillsides and smelling that locust perfume. It's about julep time, too.
If I were flush, I might be back in New Orleans, methodically working my way through t he menu at the Commander's Palace .
If I were abandoning myself to an editor's fantasies, I would be on a tour of the crypts at Merriam-Webster conducted by Peter Sokolowski, followed by cocktails with Kory Stamper. Maybe the reverse. Or sitting down to a couple of pints with Grant Barrett for a prolonged examination of taboo words .
I just need to know the benefits of black locust. How it is normally taken and the side effects of it. Is it OTC (over the counter) are do they have to prescribe it to me? If you have any information this will help me out a lot . Thank you for your time
Where can I buy black locust seeds? I am very interested in the "ship mast" locust common to Long island. What about other trees, where does everybody order tree seeds?

Black locust is one of the most fragrant of trees, despite its many other problems. (It is invasive and weedy.) The flowers are bright white, and abundant enough to be quite impressive. Southern magnolia has a distinctive but more subdued fragrance. |
By Karen Monger Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) is native to the Appalachian Mountain area, and is considered an invasive tree in other places. It grows quickly, and often in clusters, crowding out native vegetation and aggressively invading fields
