Linden trees were planted by my township when our plan was developed @ 15 years ago. They are mature now & drop their seed pods all summer long. They make a mess! The pods are everywhere. My neighbors & I out there every day cleaning them up, especially after a wind/rain event. Not a good choice for a suburban neighborhood.
