Tilia tomentosa 'Pendula' – Pendent silver linden

View prices and availability
A tree with an ascending manner of growth with hanging lateral branches, with particularly the young, limp twigs hanging down. Height 20 - 30 m, width approx. 12 m. Very suitable as a solitary tree in parks. Young twigs are greenish grey and have felt-like hair but are soon bare and green. The leaves are more or less round, darker green than those of the species and have a remarkably thick white felty underside. The leaf stem is often twice as long as that of the species, causing the leaves to move a great deal when the wind blows. They turn yellow and remain on the tree long into the autumn. In July, aromatic flowers appear. Fairly unsusceptible to aphids. Winter hardiness zone: 6a
