Tilia x stellata

A lime from the Eastern USA with big, bold foliage; a natural hybrid of T. caroliniana subsp. heterophylla and T. americana. In this country it makes a medium sized tree, quite striking on account of its very large, luxuriant, coarsely toothed leaves. Hardy, easy, though rarely seen in the UK. Young vigorous plants bear huge foliage. Expect a tree to 20m eventually.
