About Tilia euchlora (Caucasian linden)

Tilia euchlora - Caucasian linden - It is a medium deciduous tree that typically grows to 40-60’ tall and to 20-30’ wide. It has a rounded pyramidal shape with its branching becoming more pendulous with age. Fragrant pale yellowish-white flowers appear in drooping clusters (cymes) attached to distinctive papery wing-like bracts (2-3” long) in May-June. When a tree is in full bloom, bees often visit in such abundant numbers that humming can be heard many feet from the tree. Flowers give way to conspicuous nutlets that are attached to papery bracts. Nutlets ripen in late summer, but the seeds are usually sterile. Ovate to rounded, glossy deep green leaves (2-4” long) have acuminate tips, serrate margins and irregular cordate bases. Fall color is an undistinguished pale green to pale yellow. Family: Tiliaceae
