  Linden Tree (Tilia cordata)

Little Leaf Linden, Lime Flower Tree. Native to Europe, this stately deciduous tree can reach heights of 80 feet and was a common sight planted in rows along the entrances to estates throughout Europe and eventually North America. The trees have a beautiful rounded form and produce abundant, nectar filled flowers, which attract pollinators of all kinds, especially honeybees.

The leaves and flowers are used medicinally for numerous ailments. As a nervine, the tea or tincture was traditionally a favorite for “female Hysteria” and is in fact very helpful for depression, anxiety and general nervous tension. It soothes and heals the adrenal system and is extremely effective for hypertension and palpitations due to stress.

Linden can also shorten a viral infection and helps protect against stress induced ulcers and artheriosclerosis. The tea has a slightly mucilaginous quality which is soothing to the digestive tract.

Planting a Linden Tree on the edge of your landscape will provide you with a long term supply of summer shade, nectar for those important pollinators and an endless supply of Linden Tea to help you unwind and nourish your adrenal system. What better investment could there be??

Long lived. Hardy perennial. Hardy to zone 3.

A Note about Shipping Rates:

We apologize for the slight increase in shipping rates, but the rise in fuel prices continues to affect all carriers and we believe that UPS is THE MOST dependable choice for delivering healthy plants as quickly as possible.

Occasionally, customers ask us about priority mail as a shipping option but due to our extremely rural location, our tiny post office is simply not equipped to handle our shipping volume and it has been our experience that USPS is simply not as dependable for prompt and safe plant delivery.

We ship well established, healthy plants and we want them to look that way when they arrive at your doorstep and we truly believe that fast, efficient shipping is a worthwhile investment toward this goal.

Rates:

Our customers East of the Rocky Mountains must use UPS 3 Day Delivery to guarantee the arrival of healthy plants.

Remember To Include A Physical Address For UPS Delivery. No PO Boxes.
