关于我们
Tilia japonica (Bodaiju in Japanese), the Japanese lime or Japanese linden, is a deciduous tree in the family Malvaceae native to China, Japan, and East Asia. In Japan, it holds spiritual significance through its association with Buddhism — though botanically distinct from the Indian sacred fig (Bodhi tree) under which the Buddha attained enlightenment, it has been planted at temples as a symbolic substitute for centuries. The characteristic heart-shaped leaves and fragrant pale yellow summer flowers are the species' most distinctive features. In bonsai, the characteristic leaf shape and the tree's deep religious associations give it a unique cultural resonance that other species cannot replicate.
