Malvaceae
Tilia × flavescens ‘Glenleven’ is a majestic hybrid linden distinguished by its vigorous growth, elegant ovoid shape, and fragrant summer bloom, making it an ideal shade tree for large gardens, parks, and urban avenues. Originating from a cross between Tilia americana and Tilia cordata, it combines northern hardiness with a balanced structure for an imposing yet harmonious architectural effect. Its dense, dark green foliage creates pleasant shade in summer and turns golden yellow in autumn, enriching the landscape with a bright seasonal dimension. Highly adaptable to urban conditions, it tolerates pollution, varied soils, and the Quebec climate well, while offering a favorable habitat for pollinators thanks to its nectar-rich flowers. ‘Glenleven’ combines great stature, ecological utility, and low maintenance in all types of landscape designs.
