Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Medicinal | Edible Uses Latin Name: Tilia amurensis Family: Tiliaceae Author: Rupr. Known Hazards: None known Mature Height: 30 Mature Width: Habitat: Grows in woods in N. Korea[151].
Cultivation Notes: Prefers a good moist loamy alkaline to neutral soil but succeeds on slightly acid soils[11, 200]. Grows poorly on any very dry or very wet soil[200]. Dislikes exposed positions[200]. Succeeds in sun or semi-shade[188].
Prefers a continental climate, growing more slowly and not producing fertile seed in areas with cool summers[200].
Grows best in a woodland situation, young plants tolerate a reasonable level of side shade[200].
This species is closely related to T. cordata[200].
Lime trees tend to hybridise freely if other members of the genus are growing nearby[238]. If growing plants from seed it is important to ensure the seed came from a wild source or from an isolated clump of the single species[K].
Trees are usually attacked by aphids which cover the ground and the leaves with a sticky honeydew[188].
Quite tolerant of root disturbance, semi-mature trees up to 5 metres tall have been transplanted successfully.
Plants in this genus are notably resistant to honey fungus[200].
