Tilia. The Lindens 



THE Lindens are a family of fairly quick growth. They have large leaves and usually develop into 

 rather open-headed trees which are well adapted to lawn and park planting. Another characteristic 

 feature of the Lindens is their straight growth and symmetrical outline. This makes them well 

 suited for street use. The European varieties class among the best shade trees for avenue planting, 

 particularly in the suburbs. While the texture of the leaves is not so delicate as some, nor the Autumn 

 coloring so brilliant, these trees are worthy of much more general recognition.

Street planting of European Lindens that were supplied by us for the estate of Stephen Girard in Philadelphia. 

 The variety used here was Tilia vulgaris, that is listed above. The growth of these trees under city conditions has 

 been rapid and vigorous, as indicated by their healthy appearance in this picture. For suburban avenues or for lawn 

 planting they are equally desirable, being possessed of a shapely, dignified habit that is always pleasing. We now 

 offer a larger quantity of excellent stock.
