Description
Charming, sturdy, pollinator-magnet. Not only does the small-leaved lime’s blossom produce a sweet scent and pleasantly minty honey, its leaves support the caterpillars of moths such as the lime hawk, peppered and vapourer.This large deciduous tree can grow to more than 20m high as a single stem but would rarely get anywhere close to that as a multistem. Its bark is grey-brown and smooth and develops flaky plates with age. The twigs are brown-red in the shade, but become shiny in sunlight.
This specimen is a mature multi-stem measuring 6-8m in height, and is available to view in our Nursery Park.
