17. Dutch linden - Tilleul de Hollande (Tillia x europaea)

NL : The strongly scented lime blossom attracts a lot of bees that make delicious linden honey with it. But aphids also love the linden. Sometimes they occur so massively that drops of honeydew fall from the crown. These are, in fact, the sticky, sweet feces of the aphids that ants love. Chau eurs who park under a lime tree don't like it as much. Infusions of linden blossoms have an analgesic and calming effect; A linden tea before bed can do wonders. Lime wood is used for wood carvings, piano keys, shoe heels and matches. The Dutch linden is a cross between the summer lime (Tillia platyphyllos) and the winter lime (T. cordata).

FR : Les fleurs très parfumées du tilleul attirent énormément d'abeilles qui en font un excellent miel. Mais les pucerons aussi apprécient le tilleul. Parfois ces insectes sont présents en si grande quantité que leurs déjections sucrées et collantes tombent depuis la couronne de l'arbre jusque sur le sol. Les fourmis en sont friandes. Gare aux voitures parquées sous un tilleul ! Les infusions de fleurs de tilleul ont une action analgésique et calmante; Une tisane de tilleul avant le coucher peut faire des miracles. Le bois de tilleul est employé en sculpture, pour les touches de piano, les talons de chaussures et les allumettes. Le tilleul de Hollande est un croisement entre le tilleul à larges feuilles (T. platyphyllos) et le tilleul à petites feuilles (T. cordata), qui sont souvent présents dans nos contrées.
