Tilia cordata Greenspire
AKA Small Leaved Lime
The small leaved Greenspire lime is a neat, compact version of the classic small leaved lime, Tilia cordata. It produces fragrant, creamy-white flowers above small, heart-shaped dark green leaves. Native to the UK, Greenspire limes have a strong central leader with an evenly-branched pyramid shape. Limes are tolerant of wide range of difficult conditions, including heavy clay and pollution in urban settings. A versatile choice for large gardens and parklands, reaching an eventual height of 12 to 17 metres.
