The fast-growing, leafy tree has a low branching, open, widespread and fragile, nearly fern-like foliage.
The two inches in diameter,silky fragrant,, pink, puffy pompous plants, are abundant from late April to early July, providing a stunning view.
But the tree produces several seed pods, and includes insects (webworms) and diseases (vascular wilts).
Although quite short-lived (10-20 years), Mimosa is famous for its bright, dappled shade and exotic effect as a terrace or patio tree.
The leafy nature enables the warm sun to penetrate throughout the winter.
In this cruel world there are too many other high-quality trees to plant this one.
