Summer Chocolate Mimosa Silk Tree

The Chocolate Mimosa Silk Tree, also known as the Purple-Leaf Mimosa, is an exotic and beautiful tree with extraordinary flowers and foliage. The tree has a wide-spreading crown with finely divided leaves and in summer the tree is covered with clusters of beautiful, large pink and white flowers that look like tufts of silk threads, the crest on the head of a peacock, or a powder puff. Even when not in flower this is a remarkable tree, since the foliage is not plain green, but a stunning deep, rich burgundy color. The tree is wide-spreading with the flowers all along the branches.

• Spectacular and unique fluffy pink flowers all summer
