why is the linden tree a national tree

by

1 Answer

Answer :

Just look: The linden tree became an official national symbol only in June 1848 (June 2-12, 48), when it was at the All-Slavic Congress in Prague (delegates from Bohemia, Moravia, Silesia, Slovakia, as well as Poles, Ruthenians, Croats , Serbs, Slovenes and Dalmatians - all the enslaved Slavic nations), when it was established as a national symbol and thus became a symbol directed against the Great German efforts to enslave the Slavic element. Linden as a national tree was to be designed by Fr. Ladislav Čelakovský. It was actually a reaction to the Frankfurt Assembly (a parliamentary assembly of German representatives sitting in Frankfurt am Main since April 1848), where an oak tree was chosen as a symbol of the Grand Duchy.

Last Answer : This may be late for this, but I just saw it. Are all of the leaves yellow, or just a few? If it just a few and they falling, it is somewhat typical of Lindens to do that. Many think ... off the rootball when planted, or that it may have a girdling root an its base. That could cause a problem.

Last Answer : NO, not unless you want to risk killing the tree. Building a raised bed around an established tree will completely change the availability of water and nutrients. You might try a shallower bed, 3" or so, and keep the soil level within at least a foot of the tree at its current depth.
