Abstract
Littleleaf Linden grows about 50 feet tall and can spread 30 feet in most landscapes. This tree has a slower growth rate and a narrower crown than other Lindens but has a dense upright oval shape which casts deep shade. Littleleaf Linden is a prolific bloomer, the small fragrant flowers appearing in late June and into July. Many bees are attracted to the flowers, and the dried flowers persist on the tree for some time. The foliage is unusually small and fine-textured, making for a beautiful tree.
