Linden (Tilia platyphyllos) is a stately, fragrant deciduous tree well suited to large gardens, parks, and streets in temperate climates. It thrives in partial shade to full sun with average moisture, and once established it requires minimal care beyond occasional deep watering during drought. The highly fragrant summer flowers are prized for attracting pollinators and are traditionally harvested to make herbal linden tea.
