The mimosas we have in Arizona close up their leaves at night. We used to love to shine a flashlight on them until they opened up for us.

As my wife pointed out, the mimosa is like the chinaberry. Quality people never have them. Only poor folks. I guess we are marked for life.

They never volunteer here; I guess it is just too hot and dry.

Keep your tree and enjoy it.
