Description
The result of a cross between Tilia cordata and Tilia dasystyla this ever popular lime can grow as broad as it is tall so is often given the wrong sites to grow on.
Its flowers can have a narcotic effect on bees which can sometimes be found on the ground near a tree.
Redeemingly it is free of aphids so an ideal tree for pleaching or boxing in hard areas.
This Lime reacts well to pollarding which is a good way of controlling its broadly pendulous habit.
It is a medium to large tree and as aphids are not attracted to its dark green foliage the associated “stickiness” is not a problem.
Good for wide verges parks avenues and urban plantings.
