Also the national tree of Czechoslovakia. I haven't dared ask how the tree was
"divided" in 1993 when the two countries separated.

It's amazing how insignificant a little sprig of "lipa" looks and smells...and
how people and bees nearly swoon under the influence of a big one in full
bloom, like the ones at the Mala Strana exit from the Prague subway.

Whet I was a child in Arizona there was a drive near our house that had
orange trees. It was a real treat to drive down that road when they were in
bloom.

Would much rather have a gin and tonic tree!!!

You can't get key limes from a pad locked linden.
