Linden trees are beautiful trees and important pollen suppliers for insects. We have a huge specimen about 10m away, and I love it. Nothing has ever been sticky or dirty here, and aphids only occur to a normal extent. By the way, cars always park underneath there ([öffentlicher Parkraum]), and there are also garbage bins from a multi-family house; I have never been able to see any problem there. If our property would allow it, I would plant a linden tree immediately.
Be glad for this beautiful shade provider, pollen supplier, and by the way, they have a great yellow foliage color in autumn.
In our area, one is not allowed to cut down lindens, and that is a good thing.
