Basswood (American Linden)

Dropmore Linden is a dense deciduous tree with a pyramidal form.

We've discontinued Dropmore Linden to focus on other lindens with similar qualities.

Basswood, also known as American Linden, provides shade and fragrant flowers with characteristically attractive leaves and branching.

It typically has a large uniformly round crown with a straight branch free trunk.

Basswood is typically found along streams and lakes or at the bottom of slopes where the ground is moist.
