About 15-20 years ago, I was visiting my sick Uncle during springtime in a hospital in Memphis. Outside in a garden area, there was this tree covered in lovely white pendulous blooms. I was instantly charmed. The soil beneath the tree had several small seedlings 2-3" tall growing in the mulch. I pulled up 2 of them and brought them home. Gave one to Mom and I planted the other. Mom's did not survive, mine did. But it has never bloomed. My husband thought this tree was a honey locust, we know it is some kind of a locust. My question is, why will it not bloom? I see them all along the road every year, I'm seeing them right now. But mine will not bloom. Is this one of those male & female things??? Wouldn't you know I'd get the non bloomer?
