Photo of Tilia Sterling (Sterling Silver Linden)
Tilia tomentosa - Commonly called silver linden or European white linden. It is noted for its attractive foliage, which is glossy green above and silvery-white below. The foliage flutters in the slightest breeze, showcasing the silver and green leaf colors. This is a medium to large deciduous tree, typically growing to 50-70’ tall with upright branching and a broad-columnar habit. Fragrant pale yellow flowers in drooping cymes appear in late spring to early summer (June-July). Flowers are followed by small nutlets attached to narrow, bract-like, strap-shaped leafy wings. Nutlets ripen in late summer. Ovate, shiny, dark green leaves with acuminate tips and serrate margins are densely covered beneath with silvery-white hairs. Fall color is an undistinguished pale green to pale yellow. Family : Tiliaceae
