Grown for its handsome foliage that flutters and flashes with the slightest breeze, this medium to large deciduous tree is also valued for its symmetrical habit and its fragrant summer flowers. It is native to Southwest Asia and Southeast Europe.
The rich green, glossy, heart-shaped leaves of this hardy tree have fuzzy, silvery-gray undersides that shimmer as they turn in the wind. In early summer, clusters of small fragrant creamy-white blossoms dangle from the branches, yielding nectar that attracts (and intoxicates) bees. Each flower cluster has a conspicuous wing-like bract at its base. Small, beige, ovoid fruits follow the blooms. In autumn the foliage becomes greenish yellow. This oval to pyramidal tree has smooth silver-gray gray bark that becomes furrowed and gray-brown with age.
Silver linden prospers in full to partial sun and fertile, deep, humus-rich soil. Established specimens are drought-, heat-, and pollution-tolerant. This beautiful linden is an ideal shade tree for parks, large yards, and sidewalks. It can also be used in allees and sheared hedgerows.
