 '''''Tilia platyphyllos''''' is a deciduous [[tree]] native to much of [[Europe]], including locally in southwestern [[Great Britain]], growing on [[Lime (mineral)|lime]]-rich soils. The common name '''Large-leaved Linden''' is in standard use throughout the English-speaking world except in Britain, where it has largely (but not universally) been replaced{{Verify source|date=April 2010}}<!-- or is it the other way around ("linden" replacing the original "lime")? Both terms seem to date to the Early Modern era, but "linden" seems to have been an adjective "made from lime wood" at first?! --> by the name '''Large-leaved Lime'''. It is frequently planted as an ornamental tree in parks, or as a shade tree or a lawn tree. It has been introduced in the US (New England).
 It is a narrowly domed tree with a moderate growth rate, and can eventually attain a height of 40 m. The reddish-brown young [[Plant stem|stems]] later develop dark gray [[bark]] with fine fissures and furrows. The branches spread upwards at wide angles. The [[twig]]s are reddish-green and slightly pubescent.
 The [[foliage]] consists of simple, alternately arranged [[Leaf|leaves]]. As indicated by its common name, this tree has larger leaves than the related ''[[Tilia cordata]]'' (Small-leaved Linden), 6 to 9 cm (exceptionally 15 cm). They are ovate to cordate, mid to dark green above and below, with white downy hair on the underside, particularly along the veins, tapering into a mucronate tip. The margin is sharply serrate, and the base cordate; the venation is palmate along a midrib. The pubescent [[Petiole (botany)|petiole]] is usually 3-4 cm long, but can vary between 1.5-5 cm. The autumn foliage is yellow-green to yellow.

+Tilia platyphyllos, Scop. (T. grandifolia, Ehrh. T. europaea, Linn., in part). Large-leaved Lime. Tree, to 120 ft.: young branchlets pubescent, older glabrous: lvs. orbicular-ovate, abruptly acuminate, obliquely cordate at the base, regularly serrate, dull green and short-pubescent or glabrous above, light green and pubescent beneath, 3-4 in. long; petioles stout, hairy: fls. in usually 3-fld. pendulous cymes; petals oblanceolate, longer than sepals; stamens 30; style glabrous: fr. globose, ovoid or pyriform, 3-5- ribbed, apiculate, tomentose, thick-shelled. June; the earliest species to bloom. Eu.—Very variable; some of the most important varieties are the following: Var. pyramidalis, Kirchn. Of narrow pyramidal habit. Var. corallina, Dipp. (var. rubra, Hort.). Young branches red. Var. aurea, Kirchn. Young branches golden yellow. Var. laciniata, Henry (var. asplenifolia, Kirchn. var. filicifolia, Hort. T. europaea var T. laciniata, Loud.). Lvs. deeply and irregularly cut. Var. vitifolia, Simonkai. Lvs. slightly 3-lobed or indistinctly lobed.—This species is the strongest grower and in this country often sold as T. europaea. It is more impatient of drought than most other species and therefore not to be recommended as a street tree.
