Their compound leaves are similar to those of ferns although they have more of a rounded edge to the tips. The pink, fragrant, showy, and silky-threaded flowers appear as puffs and cover the tree from April through July. The silky threads of the flowers lend the tree its silk tree nickname. One of the most interesting characteristics of mimosa is how their foliage folds closed at night through due to the absence of light (nyctinastic movement).
