Although small-leaved lindens usually remain somewhat smaller than large-leaved lindens, they still grow to over 30 meters tall and, due to their winter hardiness, are found as far north as the Alps. Where the distribution areas of small-leaved and large-leaved lindens overlap, the two species often hybridize.

Like the wood of the summer linden, that of the winter linden is also popular for fine carvings and turning work.

The flowers of both species are used in folk medicine to treat coughs and as a diaphoretic .

Please note: Plants are unique and may develop differently in appearance, color, shape, and size compared to our descriptions and images. External factors such as soil type, climate, humidity, air supply, and temperature can significantly affect plant development.
Some tree varieties are genetically predisposed to germination taking up to five months - in these cases it is particularly important to keep the soil consistently moist and to be patient.
