Tilia tomentosa is a large, deciduous tree of broad conical to rounded habit, with smooth, light-grey bark, ascending branches, and rounded, toothed, dark green leaves, silvery-white, felt-like underneath. The leaves turn yellow in autumn and remain on the tree for a long time. Clusters of small, very fragrant, creamy-white to yellow flowers bloom in summer. Valuable for birds, bees, and butterflies. Tilia tomentosa can adapt to a wide range of soil conditions, but prefers average, fertile, loamy, moist, well-drained soils in full sun or partial shade. Once established, it is resistant to drought. It can withstand frost and wind. Very tolerant of urban conditions. Generally, pest-free and disease-free. Low maintenance plant, doesn’t require pruning. Silver Lime is an attractive tree perfect for planting in cities – in parks, broad streets, avenues, and industrial areas. Great as a specimen, shade or lawn tree. Suitable for growing in containers on roof gardens.
