Basswood (American Linden) vs Blue BeechTilia americana Carpinus caroliniana SOLD OUT ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW
Basswood, also known as American Linden, provides shade and fragrant flowers with characteristically attractive leaves and branching.
Blue Beech is a beautiful, ornamental tree with enticing features. The foliage transforms throughout the season, offering a kaleidoscope of color. New leaves emerge reddish-purple, transforming to dark green, and then turn striking shades of yellow, orange, and red in fall. Once all the foliage has dropped, grooved, blue-grey bark becomes striking on a winter landscape. BASSWOOD (AMERICAN LINDEN) QUICK FACTSBLUE BEECH QUICK FACTS
