General Info
In some regions of the world, such as Japan, the Mimosa Tree has been labeled ‘invasive’
This variety is very sensitive to light conditions, and the leaflets will fold up when it is dark
Its leaflets quickly turn inward when touched or shaken
Watering
This variety should be allowed to slightly dry between waterings, but never left to dry out
High humidity is essential for this tree, as it is accustomed to the conditions of the rainforest
Ensure when you water that the roots and soil have been thoroughly moistened by allowing water to drain through the bottom
Light Requirements
Although it is accustomed to full sun in its natural habit, providing conditions with partial shade will be beneficial
Morning sun is ideal for this variety, as it allows the bright full sun without the risk of sunburn on the foliage
They are tolerant to less direct sun, but will thrive in a sunny spot
