Also known as American Linden and Bee Tree, this perennial, deciduous tree grows 60 to 80 feet tall, sometimes even taller. This tree has a long trunk and wide-spreading branches that form a dense crown, and its inconspicuous but aromatic, yellow flowers frequently attract bees. It grows in full sun to shade, in dry to moist soils, preferring moist, well-drained, loam soils.
