🌳 Buy Small Leaved Lime Trees (Tilia cordata) – Fragrant UK Native Saplings for Wildlife and Gardens
The Small Leaved Lime (Tilia cordata) is a graceful native tree, often found in ancient woodlands and chalky landscapes across England and Wales. Loved by pollinators, this tree bursts into fragrant bloom in early July, attracting bees and other beneficial insects throughout the summer.
Its dark green, heart-shaped leaves have a glossy finish above and small orange tufts of hair on the underside vein junctions – a unique trait that helps identify the species. In addition to its ornamental value, the pale timber of Tilia cordata is traditionally used for fine carving, turning, and even musical instruments like piano keys and organ parts.
This fast-growing tree is ideal for planting in a wide range of soils and thrives in open spaces, woodland edges, or wildlife-friendly gardens. Our saplings, currently 15–30cm tall, are ready to plant throughout the year.
