Linden honey is one of the best kinds of honey in the earth.

On a sunny day, an old couple sat in their small house in Phrygia. They were poor but happy. They also loved the Tilia tree that grew in their yard. They brewed its leaves and ate its honey every day. They said that the Tilia tree was a magical tree that gave them health and happiness.

One day, two Olympian gods, Zeus and Hermes, came to their house disguised as two poor travelers. The old couple welcomed them with compassion and kindness and served them the best Tilia tea and honey. The gods were impressed by their hospitality and decided to give them something they had always wanted: immortality.

They told the old couple to ask for anything they desired. The old couple looked at each other and said, "We just want to be together forever." The gods smiled and said, "So be it." Then they took their hands and went towards the Tilia tree. At that moment, the old couple turned into two amazing trees: a Tilia and an oak. Their leaves were intertwined, and their branches were interwoven. The gods said, "This way, you will always be together." Then they revealed themselves and flew towards Mount Olympus.

This story is a reflection of the myth of Baucis and Philemon, which is narrated in ancient Greek mythology. The name Philemon means "affectionate," and the name Baucis means "oak." These two trees represent lovers of love, peace, patience, trust, respect, admiration, gratitude, tolerance, attention, and immortality. This tree was also a symbol of the values of the French Revolution in 1792.

The Tilia is a valuable and meaningful tree that is spread throughout the world. In America, it is called basswood, and in England, Europe, and Asia, it is called lime. These trees belong to the genus Tilia, which includes 30 different species. The greatest species diversity is seen in Asia. These trees can grow up to 40 meters tall and have beautiful heart-shaped leaves. Their flowers are fragrant and edible, and they produce delicious honey.

The Tilia has played an important role in human culture and history. This tree is the national symbol of Slovenia and a mystical symbol for many religions and sects. The names of many cities in the world contain the word "linden" or "lime." This is because the Tilia was planted in the center of villages and cities and had social and political significance. The Tilia has also been a symbol of life, health, justice, victory, and fertility.
