Amazonas06 - 103 * The Mimosa tree, Albizzia julibrissin, sometimes called Silk tree, has attractive and fragrant pom-pom like flowers and interesting fern-like foliage. This deciduous tree is attractive to bees, butterflies, and birds. This tree grows to 20?30'.

Mimosa trees are fast-growing but rather short-lived. It has a single trunk with smooth gray bark. Each bipinnate leaf is made up of hundreds of tiny leaflets coated in white hairs, giving the foliage a silvery cast. In late winter or spring the domed crown is decked in sprays of small, globular, golden yellow flower heads. (naturehills.com)
