A natural hybrid Tilia x europaea is widely used as a street tree, also well suited for use in parks and larger gardens.

Rounded lime green heart shaped leaves, creamy white flowers that attract bees and a hardy nature make Tilia x europaea a useful tree for a range of situations.

Also known as ‘Linden Tree’ and ‘Kaiser Tree’ it is widely grown throughout Europe as well as Australia. Regarded as tolerant of air pollution as well as being an attractive street tree it also attracts bees when in flower.

Reaching around 25m in height depending on conditions Tilia x europaea is not suited for planting in small spaces or underneath power lines. Deciduous, frost tolerant and good in windy conditions it does make a good shade tree for larger gardens, parks and broader landscaping situations.

With good autumn colour as the foliage turns from green to orange and yellow, Tilia x europaea was widely planted in gardens across Victoria and New South Wales in the early 1900s by landscapers including William Guilfoyle. Many are still in excellent condition 100 years later.
