<br />AMERICAN LINDEN - Tilia americana <br /> <br />Page 1 of2 <br /> <br />Outstanding Features: <br /> <br /> <br />AMERICAN LINDEN <br />· Tilia americana <br /> <br />Large tree with nice form. Well adapted to the climate of much of the upper midwest. <br /> <br />Description: <br /> <br />Height: 50-75' Width: 25-40' <br /> <br />Hardiness Zone: 3a <br /> <br />American Linden or Basswood is an excellent landscape tree for large scale sites. It is a large tree with <br />an oval to rounded crown. The rounded leaves are quite large, reaching 4-6" in both length and width. <br />Fall color is pale yellow. The small yellowish flowers open in June and are very fragrant; they are a <br />favorite source of nectar for honey bees. American Linden is native throughout the upper midwest. <br /> <br />Requirements and Culture: <br /> <br />Lindens prefer a rich, well drained soil with ample moisture but are fairly tolerant to a broad range of <br />. soil conditions. Full sun or partial shade. Tolerates clay soils better than many tree species. Removal of <br />suckers from the base of the trunk may be required. <br /> <br />Limitations: <br /> <br />No serious insect or disease problems in the upper midwest but are quite susceptible to the Japanese <br />beetle where it occurs. Susceptible to leaf scorch in dry urban sites. <br /> <br />Selected Cultivars: <br /> <br />'Redmond' - has an excellent pyramidal form. Twigs of current season's growth are reddish. Often listed <br />as a cultivar of T. x euchlora. It is questionable as to species origin. Probably a hybrid. <br /> <br />'Fastigiata' - is a very attractive tree with a narrow pyramidal crown. <br /> <br />Photo Credit: 1 & 2 MLA. <br /> <br />Mipnesota Power I University. of Minnesota I Northern States Power Company <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />http://www.mpelectric.com/treebooklfactll1.html <br /> <br />9/25/2002 <br />
