Abstract
Littleleaf Linden grows 80 feet tall and can spread 40 to 50 feet, but is normally seen 40 to 50 feet tall with a 35 to 40-foot-spread in most landscapes. This tree has a slower growth rate than other Lindens but has a dense pyramidal to oval crown which casts deep shade. Architects enjoy using the tree due to its predictably symmetrical shape. Littleleaf Linden is a prolific bloomer, the small, fragrant flowers appearing in late June and into July. Original publication date November 1993.
