    I remember this one, Basaylik. I do not know if I would have been able to identify the tree and leaves. I recall the leaves had a nice smell and of drinking the tea.

    This herb has a very sweet aroma. A cup of tea at nights is very soothing. This is bazalick, of course.

    Would love to have some this morning to warm my stomach. If you grew up on those kinds of bush you got to have a healthy immune system.
