The Shademaster Honeylocust (Gleditsia triacanthos'Shademaster') is a fast-growing, deciduous tree known for its, thornless, seedless, and vase-shaped structure, reaching 50–70 feet in height. It features fine, fern-like foliage that creates dappled, filtered shade, allowing grass to grow underneath.
