Description

The listing, 3 days only! Silk Tree (Mimosa) (10 Seeds) (fs) has ended.

(USE GIN and get 5 extra seeds ) Mimosa tree is from Asia and Africa. It is sometimes called a Silk tree. It grows to an average of 20-30 feet. It is a deciduous tree, which attracts bees and butterflies. A mimosa tree has a single trunk and fern-like leafs with fragrant pom-pom like flowers.
People plant it in their yards to add beauty to their surroundings.
It spreads by animals and water-dispersed seeds. In wet areas, the seedpods float downstream. This enables them to reproduce quickly. The Mimosa grows better in dry-to-wet places. It is able to survive the winter in the southern U.S. but flowers better in warmer, drier climates. The flowers come up from May to July and the fruits and seeds come up from June to February.
Mimosa trees grow rapidly and reproduce easily.

They are considered fast growing depending on many different factors. Usually 3-5 years they will reach about 10 feet, 5 to 10 years they will reach from 20 to 40 feet at full height.
