Mimosa

[Eeilee]

I’m attempting to grow a mimosa from seed and it’s doing ok so far.
It’s taken 5 months to get this size.
I intend to pot it up several times as I’ve heard they are invasive.
Anyone with mimosa experience have tips?

Yes, they absolutely are invasive here. They are abundant along roadways seeking only good sunshine. They seem to tolerate any kind of soil and ph. They start blooming here at the end of May every year just like clockwork.

I used to love them...but with miles of fencerows, not so much anymore.

Probably not invasive in Oregon. They love heat, sun and moderate to high humidity. Hence the invasive in Texas and not so much in Oregon.

This is the only mimosa I know...

1 bottle of chilled sparkling champagne
3 cups of chilled fresh squeezed orange juice
1/2 cup grand marnier
