A deciduous tree with a long trunk, dense crown, and many small, drooping branches, the American Linden is well suited for a shade or ornamental tree. When in flower, this species is full of bees! American Lindens are a great tree for most forest restorations; they are also well suited for upland buffers, vegetated swales, and soil stabilization.
