Tilia cordata, commonly known as the Small-leaved Lime or Littleleaf Linden, is a deciduous tree that belongs to the Tiliaceae family. When grown as a standard tree, it is typically characterized by a single, tall, straight trunk with a clear stem, devoid of lower branches or foliage for a significant portion of its height.

At around 300 centimeters (3 meters) in height, Tilia cordata 'Roelvo' is relatively small for a mature tree, making it suitable for urban or smaller garden settings. Its leaves are heart-shaped and small, lending an elegant and delicate appearance to the tree. During the summer months, the tree produces fragrant, pale yellow flowers that are attractive to bees and other pollinators.

Tilia cordata 'Roelvo' is known for its tolerance to urban conditions, making it a popular choice for street planting and ornamental landscaping. Its dense foliage provides ample shade, and the clear stem allows for easy maintenance and pedestrian clearance beneath its canopy. In the fall, the tree's leaves turn a vibrant shade of yellow, adding seasonal interest to the landscape.

Overall, Tilia cordata 'Roelvo' is a charming and compact tree that combines aesthetic appeal with practicality, making it an excellent choice for enhancing urban green spaces and gardens.

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).
