Gleditsia Triacanthos Var. Inermis ‘Ruby Lace’ (Ruby Lace Honey Locust) is a beautiful deciduous feature tree admired for its delicate, fern-like foliage and graceful spreading habit. Its new growth emerges in rich ruby-red to bronze tones before maturing to soft green, creating attractive seasonal colour and light, airy texture in the landscape. The open canopy provides filtered shade, making it ideal for gardens, lawns, streetscapes, and larger landscape areas where a refined ornamental tree is desired.

Perfect for customers wanting a hardy, elegant, and low-maintenance shade tree, Ruby Lace Honey Locust brings colour, movement, and structure to outdoor spaces. Its fine foliage allows light to pass through, making it easier to grow lawn or underplanting beneath the canopy compared with denser shade trees. This striking tree is an excellent choice for adding seasonal interest, soft shade, and a sophisticated garden feature.
