Littleleaf Linden

Littleleaf Linden trees are slow-growing trees but provide excellent screening due to the dense foliage. They are preferred by landscape gardeners due to their fragrant flowers that attract several species of bees. In areas of infestation, Little Lindens are highly susceptible to Japanese beetles that can often defoliate the entire tree. Their flowers are yellow and can often bloom through all of summer.
