Thanks for telling me about it. I checked out some sites and learnt that the Mimosa/Silk tree is botanically known as Albizia julibrissin. They grow to a much greater height than the Powder Puff I'd posted. The two-toned bloom is of the Calliandra surinamensis. The resemblance is due to the fact that they belong to the same family--Fabaceae. Sub-family-- mimosoideae.<br /><br />Loved your photos. I'd never thought of the connection till I read your comment. It was so interesting to see the "family" on this site---www.flowersofindia.net<br /><br />Hope your week is great!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1374840862168255424.post-16579671698486288202010-07-02T02:58:23.632-07:002010-07-02T02:58:23.632-07:00Beautiful words and also a beautiful tree.I don...Beautiful words and also a beautiful tree.I don't think they grow up north. I'm sure our long cold winters would suck the happiness right out of them. <br />I wanted to tell you that the big red flower on my header picture is a Mondard, bee balm, or Oswego tea flower. I remembered that you had mentioned you wanted to see what they looked like in bloom.<br />The colonists used them to make tea after the Boston Tea Party.aspiritofsimplicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14870339828098281415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1374840862168255424.post-28302486547432586332010-07-01T20:28:51.898-07:002010-07-01T20:28:51.898-07:00Ginny, you are truly a storehouse of interesting i...Ginny, you are truly a storehouse of interesting info! I didn't know that the bark of the mimosa is used in medicine. These trees do photograph well, don't they - and they attract bees and butterflies and hummingbirds.<br /><br />I love the way you included a spiritual lesson, too!

I did not know about the collective happiness things. maybe mine might have that also. should i scrape the bark and eat/smoke/chew/burn it? and see what happens? is this your tree, or a found object?
