Littleleaf Linden is also known as the Tree of Love!

It was said to be special to Freya (the Germanic and Norse goddess of love and fertility) and Frigga (the goddess of love and marriage). Women wishing to become pregnant would hug this tree.

Native to Europe, it can grow to up to 40 meters or 131 feet in height. Its leaves are heart-shaped and its fragrant flowers attract bees.
