Origin: China |

|
The mimosa (Silk tree, Sensitive plant) is a fast growing
small tree reaching heights up to 11 metres. The leaves are about 30cms long
and are known for their defensive reaction to touch or light: touch the leaf
or hold a lit match nearby and the entire leaf close within seconds. The flowers
are pink and look like fluffy silk powder puffs - the overall effect is that
of a burst of fireworks. |
