A cultivar of T. cordata discovered as a seedling, which starts out with a narrow, conical, compact crown that becomes broader later. Height 12 - 18 m, width up to 12 m. The trunk is dark brown and grooved, young twigs are green to reddish brown. The dark green leaves generally have a slanted, heart-shaped base and taper to an abrupt point at the top. They are bluish green underneath and turn a remarkable yellowish colour in the autumn. Pungent flowers appear in early summer, growing 5 – 10 together in short umbels. The light green bract is somewhat shorter than the umbel. Small fruit follow in late summer. These are grey and felt-like at first and later bare. T. cordata and cultivars are not very prone to aphids. Its narrow manner of growth makes 'Böhlje' excellently suitable for streets and avenues.
