American Basswood or Linden is a durable canopy tree which can often be mistaken for an oak when grown the forest. Non-native Tilia cordata or T. tomentosa is often used as a street tree due to its smaller size but A. basswood should not be overlooked. Yellow fragrant flowers are very popular with bees and other pollinators. Songbirds and other wildlife use the seeds as a food source.
