Boulevard Linden

The Boulevard Linden, Tilia americana 'Boulevard', has a narrow pyramidal form with ascending branches. Large, dark green foliage combines beautifully with fragrant yellow flowers in early summer. This linden is an attractive specimen where height is needed but width is limited, such as boulevards. It is best used for farmstead windbreaks, and park trees in open landscape areas because of its large size and spreading root system. This deciduous tree requires full sun, will tolerate some shade, and needs well drained soil. It has a pyramidal shape when young, becoming rounded when mature.
