Broad crown of a Small-leaved Lime with heart-shaped green leavesÁrboles

Small-leaved Lime is a stately, long-lived tree with a broad, densely branched crown and heart-shaped, glossy green leaves. In June and July, fragrant, yellow-green flowers appear that attract vast numbers of bees — the lime is one of Europe's most important bee plants. In autumn, the foliage turns warm yellow.

Guía de cuidados

Plant in sun or partial shade in moist, nutrient-rich soil. Lime tolerates urban conditions well and is widely planted as an avenue tree. Water young trees regularly; mature trees are self-sufficient. Allow for the ultimate size when choosing a location.

Consejos de poda

Prune in winter when the tree is dormant. Remove dead wood and crossing branches. Lime takes well to shaping and is traditionally used as a pleached tree. Avoid heavy pruning during the growing season.
