>From the Encyclopaedia Britannica, 15th edition (1986):
linden, any of several trees of the genus *Tilia* (family Tiliaceae),
native to the northern hemisphere. Of the approximately 30 species, a few
are outstanding as ornamental and shade trees. They are among the most
graceful of deciduous trees, with heart-shaped, coarsely toothed leaves;
fragrant cream-coloureed flowers; and small globular fruit hanging from a
narrow leafy bract.
<snip>
The European linden, or common lime (*T. europaea*), is a natural
hybrid between the big-leaf linden (*T. platyphyllos*) and little-leaf linden.
