Tilia Americana
Tree Description:
Linden trees are also known as American basswood and are native to Illinois. Their heart shaped leaves contain a lot of important minerals that are great for soil regeneration when they fall to the earth. Linden trees have fragrant flowers in June, and the wood is relatively soft and often used for hand carvings.
