Tilia dasystyla subsp. caucasica, popularly known as Caucasian Linden, is a broadleaf deciduous tree characterized by vibrant green foliage which makes a stunning contrast with the cream flowers emerging during the warm summer months.
The plant has a strong appeal to pollinators, attracting bees and butterflies, making it a standout choice for gardens focused around nurturing pollinators. Caucasian Linden is not just beautiful but robust too. It grows excellently in the sunlight with a water regime ranging from regular to occasional. It boasts of a drought tolerance once it is fully established and can adapt to varying soil conditions, thriving especially well in average soil.
For those in urban areas, this tree presents an excellent option as it is notably resistant to pollution as well as verticillium wilt, ensuring that it stays lush and vibrant. This rare lime variety hails from the Caucasus and North Iran, its leaves are notably bristle-toothed and somewhat rounded. It also features very prominent long, pale bracts that are attached to the clusters of wonderfully scented cream flowers.
Caucasian Linden grows into a strong, healthy, medium-sized tree, enhancing the beauty and biodiversity of your garden or yard.
