The Tilia cordata Green Spire, commonly known as the Littleleaf Linden or Small-leaved Lime, is an elegant and compact deciduous tree that reaches a height of approximately 300 centimeters (3 meters) when grown as a standard tree with a clear stem. Its clear stem refers to the trunk of the tree that is free from branches up to a certain height, giving it a clean and upright appearance.
Green Spire is characterized by its heart-shaped, glossy green leaves that are smaller than those of other Tilia species. These leaves create a lush, dense canopy that provides excellent shade during the summer months. In late spring to early summer, the tree produces clusters of fragrant, pale yellow to cream-colored flowers that attract pollinators, making it a favorite among bees.
This particular cultivar, Green Spire, is valued for its columnar and symmetrical growth habit, making it an ideal choice for urban landscapes and smaller gardens where space is limited. Its manageable size, coupled with its pleasing aesthetics, make it a popular choice for residential gardens and city streetscapes alike. With its clear stem and compact form, the Tilia cordata Green Spire standard tree offers a visually appealing and space-efficient addition to any landscape while providing the added benefit of shade and wildlife attraction.

Arundel Arboretum is a shrub and tree retail nursery with over 40 years of experience.

About Us
During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.
What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
