The European Linden (Tilia x europea) is a tall, stately tree with numerous, low
hung spreading branches. It reaches a height over 100 feet with dark green
foliage. This tree flowers in late May or early June, and attracts not only an
unusually profuse number of honey bees but also an array of butterflies. Linden
flower baths are used to treat anxiety, hypertension, as well as soothe rheumatic
aches. They can calm irritable and restless children too. Even the bark of the
Linden tree is useful; homeopatic medicine uses it to treat kidney and gout stones
and coronary disease. Linden tree bark charcoal is an excellent absorbent which is
particularly useful in absorbing toxins. It also calms a stressed digestive system
allowing digestive enzymes to be produced and released. Indigestion and nervous
vomiting are also treated with this ingredient.
