About this plant

Silver linden has silver-backed leaves that shimmer in wind and a fragrant summer flower display.

As the plant matures it forms a broad, regular crown, creating a strong shape through the growing season.

Best used for

Plant as a strong shade or avenue tree in a spacious garden or landscape.

Give the plant enough space and light to show its natural form.

Growth & mature size

Growth per year 30–60 cm per year Medium growth
Expected mature size 15–25 m high / 10–15 m wide

Expect around 30–60 cm of new growth per year after establishment in good conditions. At maturity it typically reaches 15–25 m in height and 10–15 m in width. Allow room for a broad, regular crown; soil, water, exposure and pruning all influence its final outline.

How to care

Plant in fertile, well-drained soil. Water deeply through the first growing seasons and during prolonged dry spells later on. Top-dress with mature compost once a year in spring, keeping it clear of the stems. Remove damaged or crossing branches as needed, avoiding heavy routine pruning.

What you will receive

You will receive a healthy container plant in the selected size. The plant is prepared for delivery and supplied ready for planting.
