Tilia americana ‘Durable’
Description
Native shade tree – own root. The parent tree was discovered by landscape architect Joe Howell growing in a parking lot cutout in downtown Tulsa, Oklahoma. Durable™ is a vigorous selection that should perform well in areas where American Linden (Basswood) may not normally be considered for use.
