Sidekick And Piriformis

The biggest black locust Quebec.

The black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) is intimately connected to what was once called the small hill or small mountain now called Westmount.

Indeed, this is around the hill and found the largest specimens. King George Park has probably the largest number of old locust trees. He is everywhere present. The walker who stops there will be very perplexing.

In mid-June is the feast, it is in bloom!
These unique smell. This is one of the most perfumes exquisite nature has taken millions of years to develop. Take time to breathe the balm be unique student experience and is a mystery.


Further down south of this hill in 2080 Blvd. Rene Levesque found a beautiful specimen. Its trunk is over 90 cm making it the largest in the province *.

It looked to its natural range. It comes from the south-central United States and is now naturalized in our country. In addition, it colonizes the vacant lots.

It is found in abundance behind the University of Montreal at this location , A few years ago, it was transported several trips gravel following the construction of new buildings.

This is a tree that has every interest to be discovered. It enriches the lives of our neighborhoods. We offer a balm unusual and colonizes waste places.
