Hamamelis Mollis

My parents keep around 20 chickens, and so we sell the eggs to neighbours. One of our neighbours has a big Chinese Witch Hazel bush in their front garden that smells amazing and when we were kids, on the way to school, mum would always say: "Oooh, smell that hamamelis mollis!".

Earlier, mum asked me to take some eggs round to one of the houses and when neither of us could find an identifying feature (or remember the number), I asked "Hamamelis mollis?" and when she confirmed, I knew exactly which house!

I just asked my little brother to take the eggs round to the family, he asks which house, I reply hamamelis mollis, he goes OK, see you later!

Ook, ek het 'n nuwe fiets! Dit is baie blou en lekker.
