Description: Thornless form of the Texas Honey Mesquite, ideal for Central Texas arid regions. Deciduous trees feature soft, fine-textured foliage that casts light, filtered shade. Fragrant yellow spring flowers attract pollinators, and the tree provides excellent wildlife and erosion control value. Highly drought-tolerant and adaptable to poor, rocky, or sandy soils. Thornless types are safer for high-traffic areas and easier to maintain than wild types. Sculptural trunk form adds character to xeric landscapes, while minimal water needs make it suitable for low-maintenance plantings.
