Another from the botanic garden - found these most interesting and exotic at least for my area. I researched them a bit and found they are also called mimosa tree and are considered somewhat of a pest.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

Beautiful shot of this delicate bloom Kathy - love the colors against the green background - great clarity and nicely presented - Well Done!!! p.s. we have mimosa trees in Jersey - they ususally bloom in early spring.

You've amazed me again, Kathy.
Meanwhile your gallery is grown to a well illustrated flower 'encyclopedia'.
Thanks for that, my friend.
