In Norse tradition, the linden was sacred to the goddess of love, Freya. In the famous Nibelungenlied, the hero Siegfried became invulnerable after bathing in dragon's blood, except for a spot on his back where a linden leaf had fallen. Despite the common name "lime flower," this herb has no relation to citrus limes. The name comes from the Old English word "linde." Linden trees can live for over 1,000 years and are important honey trees for bees. Not recommended for long-term daily use without breaks. May interact with lithium medications.
