Description: 15+Silk Tree Seeds {Albizia julibrissin} Mimosa / Persian Silk Tree of Happiness. Harvested 11/2024 - Mimosa trees grow best in warm climates and prefer sunny locations that protect them from the wind. They can tolerate cold temperatures down to about -5°F (-21°C). Once established, mimosas are reasonably drought tolerant and fix their own nitrogen. - It can also thrive in a variety of conditions, including full sun, partial shade, and drought. - It can survive temperatures that drop below zero degrees Fahrenheit. - It grows well in USDA Hardiness Zones 6–9 To grow a mimosa tree from seed, you can:1) Soak the seeds in hot water for about an hour to improve germination. You can also scarify the seeds by filing or scratching the surface until pale spots appear. 2) Fill a pot or tray with a well-draining potting mix and moisten the soil. Plant the seeds about 1/4 inch deep and space them a few inches apart. 3) Place the pot in a warm location with bright, indirect light and a consistent temperature of around 70-80°F (21-27°C). 4) Once the seedlings have a few sets of true leaves, you can transplant them into larger pots or directly into the garden. 5) Water regularly, making sure the soil is moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around the base of the trees to help retain moisture. Environmental benefits: Mimosa trees can improve soil fertility by converting atmospheric nitrogen into a form that plants can use. Ornamental value: Mimosa trees can be used as shade trees in large gardens and parks.

You should not use the information provided here for diagnosing or treating a health problem or disease or prescribing any medication or other treatment. *SEEDS DISCLAIMER* Most specialty seeds we offer are NOT fast to germinate. Many take several weeks, months, and some even up towards a year depending on dormancy, region, season etc. It is important that the buyer understands that seeds are perishable products and seed germination can be adversely affected by such factors as mold/fungus, bugs, temperature, moisture content, light intensity, dormancy, care, contamination of planting media among many other reasons. Germination recommendations are sent with each order and the buyer is free to research and use their own methods. Floating seeds do not always indicate that the seed is not viable. Many times, it is a misconception because the seed does not have the density to sink in water. Accordingly, The Plant Attraction does not guarantee seeds to perform properly regardless of conditions or buyer's methods or soil/water/lighting.
