Need tree species

9 years ago

I seen a couple of trees at a hotel in Venice Italy. There were about 20 feet high, beautiful and the fragrance was out of this world. Honey bees loved them too. I can't find the name of them and I have even email the hotel and they want answer. The leaves favor a Mulberry back here in the states. I have no ideal to what the fruit looks like.

Thanks in advance,
Jim

Tilia (linden).

Tilia species probably Tilia cordata. Very common in the U.S. as a street tree.
