The mimosa tree

The mimosa tree has finally blossomed after eight years!  This tree came from my former residence here in Manchester where it was accidentally dug up during construction of a stone walkway.  I saved the remains of it in a container and brought it with me, transplanted it, and it has now grown to about 20 feet tall. It has small fern-like leaves and delicate pink flowers. A robin built a nest in it two summers ago, you can see a photo of that in my first post.
