Linden, Littleleaf (Tilia cordata), packet of 20 seeds, organic

$4.95

Family: Tilia (Tiliaceae)

Hardy to Zones 2 to 8

Deciduous tree to 70 feet tall, with a handsome, dense, round crown.  Multi-purpose tree with substantial wildlife and pollinator value, producing copious nectar that is relished by bees.  Tilia flower bracts make a delicious tea, often called “lime flower tea,” which has a sweet taste and a honeyed fragrance.  Traditional usage (TWM): Hypertension.  The plant prefers part shade to full sun and good, moist, loamy soil that is neutral in pH.  Plant densely, 10 per gallon pot, 1/2 to 1 inch deep, tamp well and mulch with decomposed leaves, peat moss or coir.  Seed has a pericarp that impedes germination–nick with a sharp blade before planting.  Sow seeds in fall, winter or very early spring for germ in spring. After the seedlings are sufficiently hardened off, transplant to individual gallon-size pots and grow on for at least a year before transplanting to landscape.

20 seeds per packet, certified organically grown

      I just checked, and it does look like linden trees and seeds are sold out for the season. Sorry about that, everyone needs a linden!
