Native to Europe and Great Britain, this handsome lawn, specimen, shade, or street tree is the latest linden to bloom. A broad pyramid when young to middle aged, the tree ultimately matures to a broad, symmetrical oval. Very hardy in deep, moist soils, it does poorly in droughty situations. Very tolerant of air pollution. Generally recommended where soils and moisture are adequate.
Several cultivars are available.
60 x 35 Hardy Zone 4. A very straight trunked, symmetrical cultivar with a very regular form adapted to difficult sites. Other cultivars also are available. Consult with your local Iowa certified nurseryman. 60 x 40 Hardy Zone 4.
