I have a Mimosa that I dearly love. Two years ago a friend gave it to me as a "stick (with a tiny limb that had some small leaves) in a pot of soil" that was just sitting underneath an oak tree in her yard. She said that her husband that had recently passed away had cut limbs from the Mimosa in their yard and stuck it in the pot of soil about 4 months before. I brought it home and set it on my south facing covered patio for about a week and slowly moved it to the full sun in which I planted it.

This is what it looks like today... It is about 4 ft tall and has three good sized limbs. I'm not sure you can see all the limbs in this picture.

I named this tree "Will" due to it's will to live and the dear friend that potted it up (for me) before passing on.. RIP Will Dennis.
