I have a very small Mimosa tree that I brought back from Kentucky to my home in Michigan a couple days ago. I would like to plant it in a large pot to keep it over the summer, and see if I can store it in my garage or barn for the winters (like I do tree roses), bringing it back out next summer. The dormant whip (about 4 feet tall) is barefooted and has not sprouted yet.

What kind of soil do I need to use?

What are its water needs?

Does anyone have any experience doing this?

Any suggestions?

I sure appreciate any help you kind folks can give me!

:) Glenda

FYI... Here's a picture of the Mimosa tree that this small tree was taken from. The picture was taken last summer (2007).
