Small-leaved lime (Tilia cordata)

The small-leaved lime (Tilia cordata) is a deciduous tree widely grown as an ornamental plant in parks and along streets globally. Honeybees are particularly attracted to its flowers, producing highly nutritious monofloral honey. Historically, British shipbuilders used the wood for onboard furniture, while French shipbuilders deemed it less suitable for structural purposes, leading to the nickname "limey" for the British.
