Small-Leaved Lime Tree | Tilia cordata 'Greenspire'
- One of the most charming ornamental trees you'll ever see, 'Greenspire' is a small-leaved lime (or linden) tree worth keeping on your horticultural radar. Growing to well over 12 metres tall, the tree dazzles in autumn as its once-green foliage takes on enchanting yellow hues.
- Hardy, easy to grow and vigorous in nature, this tree has grown popular for street plantings, but it will look just as good as a feature tree in the garden at home. Don't let the tall height put you off, either, as with yearly pruning it can easily be kept shorter.
- At the height of summer, the tree produces wonderfully fragrant, yellow flower clusters that contrast beautifully with the dark green foliage. On established, mature trees, this clothing of flowers lends the tree an almost glimmering, magical quality.
- A recipient of the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit, 'Greenspire' has been shown to perform particularly well in British gardens. It also boasts Plants for Pollinators status, indicating its appeal to bees and butterflies.
- Did you know? Linden wood has been used for a whole manner of things, historically, including both making Viking shields and being the material from which carvings were made at St. Paul's Cathedral, Windsor Castle and Chatsworth House.
