Tilia vulgaris ( europsea ) 
A handsome, symmetrical tree of 
vigorous growth. This tree is used 
abroad, planted closely together, the 
tops clipped to form long, formal allees; 
and, in Holland, it is planted beside the 
canals, the side next the houses being 
cut away entirely to admit light and air 
to the houses, the trees forming a sort of 
spreading green fan before the buildings.

formal avenues in towns or country.
