The honey locust, also known as the thorny locust, is a deciduous tree in the family Fabaceae, native to central North America where it is mostly found in the moist soil of river valleys. Honey locust is highly adaptable to different environments, has been introduced worldwide, and is an aggressive invasive species.

It is a curious quirk of Honey Locust wands that the ease with which they cast makes most wixes they chose to have a hard time using any other wood for their wand if they lose their Honey Locust wand. While using a different wand can eventually be relearned, most wixes with Honey Locust wands retain the wand, or get a replacement made of Honey Locust, rather than change the wand wood. Honey Locust wands are most usually found in the hands of Aurors, though they can be found in the hands of criminals. Honey Locust is a curious wand in that it dislikes unicorn cores. It pairs well with Horned Serpent horn.
