Tilia x euchlora

Euchlora Linden

Crimean linden (Tilia x euchlora) forms a dense deciduous crown with somewhat drooping branches. Glossy green foliage and pale, fragrant flowers give this substantial tree a refined summer appearance.

Its structure combines dense branching and upright growth. The leaves are shed for winter. Autumn foliage can bring yellow tones.

Choose a site in full sun or partial shade. Provide well-drained soil and maintain even moisture.
