Lime - Tilia x europaea

 
This Lime tree was quite isolated compared to the other very densley populated areas of vegetation within Longford park. This tree has been said not to be good for street planting due to it suffering from heavy aphid infestation, causing honey dew to rain down. The tree would have yellowish white, 5 petalled, fragrant flowers when blossomed.
