It's ironic that so many of the best honey bee plants are considered "invasive" by some people. Of course, many of those same people regard the honey bee as also invasive. Oh well, the bees and me, we take what we can get.

Robinia pseudoacacia
> Black locust is actually native to the southeastern U.S., but is considered an invasive outside of that range. Once introduced to an area, black locust spreads easily into areas where its shade eliminates competition from other (sun-loving) plants. It is a very fast-growing tree that reproduces vigorously by root suckering.
