Common Lime / Tilia x Europaea
Tilia x europaea is a deciduous Tree growing to 35 m (114ft) by 15 m (49ft) at a medium rate. It is hardy to zone (UK) 3 and is not frost tender. It is in flower in July.
The species is hermaphrodite (has both male and female organs) and is pollinated by Insects. It is noted for attracting wildlife. The bark is pale grey-brown and irregularly ridged, with characteristic large burrs and leaf shoots at the base of the tree. Twigs are slender and brown, although they become red in the sun.
Leaf buds are red, with one small scale and one large scale, resembling a boxing glove, and form on long leaf stalks. The leaves are dark green in colour, heart-shaped and flimsy and measure 6–10cm in length. They have a lopsided, lobed leaf base and tufts of white hairs in vein axils, and fade to a dull yellow before falling in autumn.
Limes are hermaphrodite, meaning both the male and female reproductive parts are contained within one flower. Flowers are white-yellow, five-petalled and hang in clusters of 2-5 and have a drooping habit.
