Not Bugged by Beetles!
Nothing beats relaxing in the shade during the dog days of summer and we’ve got the perfect tree for you to park your hammock under: Corinthian® Littleleaf Linden.
Smaller in stature, this tightly branched symmetrical tree has a neat and clean appearance year round.
Its leaves are smaller, thicker and glossier than the species and perhaps that is why it appears, unlike other cultivars, to be resistant to eriophyid mites and Japanese beetles according to many in the green industry.
Corinthian® Littleleaf Linden
Tilia cordata ‘Corzam’
David Listerman of Listerman & Associates, Inc in Beavercreek, Ohio says, “I have viewed many field plantings of Corinthian® grown alongside numerous other Tilia cordata cultivars. I have found it to be unaffected by Japanese Beetles, even in areas where similar cultivars received considerable damage.”
