Debra, I grew 6 Mimosa\'s from seed about 2005 . I gave away 4 of them and kept 2 for myself. I didn;t plant my 2 for several years. One had what looked like chocolate spores (like on a fern) on the back of the lvs.
So the next yr or so ( I think its 2nd yr) . when it put out leaves in the spring, it became apparant that it had turned chocolate.. It never turned chocolate again.
It must be a mutant. It\'s much smaller than the green tree.
This is only the 2nd yr I have been able to smell the wonderful scent coming from the blooms, a very sweet scent.
