Before you can interact with a honey tree, you’ll need to acquire honey. To get the item, head on over to the Floaroma Meadow, which is connected to the northwest exit in Floaroma Town.

That’s everything you need to know about how honey trees work in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. Be sure to check out our guide wiki on the game for more tips, tricks, and other info if you need more pointers.
