Description

Also known as linden or lime, tilia is a deciduous tree to be found throughout the northern hemisphere. The blossoms and leaves provide its healing properties.

The most important properties attributed to it are its calming effects on the nervous system and the relaxation it affords, making it perfect as a late-night beverage. It is also a diuretic, contributing to the shrinking of kidney stones and to reducing high blood pressure. Finally, the brew from the tilia triggers perspiration which is particularly beneficial for feverish colds.
