Linden / Basswood ID

Dan0 · 12th September 2008, 04:19 AM

Hi,
The nursery where I bought this tree told me that it was a Linden. Can anyone tell me what type of Linden it is? I have seen other Lindens in the area but this one apperas to have lighter coloured leaves?

Thanks

Looks like tilia americana

Leaf color may be due to "chlorosis" from nutrient deficiency.

If the others are mature, maybe yours will look like them someday.

Be sure you protect the trunk from sunscald; see attached.
