Every year I try to capture with the camera the feeling that comes when the male hazel catkins, the lamb's tails, at last extend to their full stretch.
The above show a branchful in our front garden in Sedlescombe. They show up well against the foliage behind which is that of the tamarisk-leaved false-cypress, Chamaecyparis lawsoniana Tamariscifolia, at least, this is what it was sold to me as many years ago and I have no reason to disbelieve the supplier, a local conifer nurseryman in Whatlington.
