Tilia henryana Henry’s Lime Tilia henryana is a small/medium size tree that has a graceful appearance. Its slow growing and upright habit makes it a perfect candidate for a garden tree. The ovate, heart shaped leaves create a lovely free flowing canopy, that gradually turns golden yellow in the autumn. The unusual leaves can easily be identified by their long serrated edge The serrations can be up to 1cm in length. Tilia henryana can put on a second flush of leaves in late summer, which can appear silvery- pink in colour and really stands out against the dark green of the mature leaves. Clusters of fragrant creamy-white flowers appear in late summer.
