Tilia cordata Corzam Corinthian

Corinthian Linden

Corinthian linden (Tilia cordata 'Corzam') forms a notably narrow pyramid with small, thick, dark green leaves. The fine-textured canopy is useful for a vertical tree accent where width is limited.

The canopy loses its leaves for winter. Autumn color includes yellow. Allow the natural framework to develop without crowding neighboring plants or paths.

Choose a sunny position with well-drained soil. Water during establishment and allow enough room for the developing crown.
