Tila (Tilia mexicana)

Tila (Tilia mexicana) is a tree that has heart shaped serrated leaves and yellow flowers. Tila grows from Mexico to Central America. Traditionally the leaves and flowers are harvested,dried and then brewed in a tea to be used as a gentle sedative and muscle relaxant. Tila tea is quite popular and small packets of dried leaves and flowers can be purchased at an affordable price in yerberias.
