A great fast-growing, native tree for shade or specimen plantings. Attractive heart shaped leaves and fragrant flowers in June. Flowers are favored by bees and honey from basswood trees is particularly prized. Seeds appear as hanging nutlets and are attractive to birds and other wildlife. 'Redmond' is a dense, pyramidal cultivar that has proven worthy of distinction, especially as a reliable street tree even in urban settings.
