Phoenix Zoo..March 08. Beats me the type of bloom this is. They're about 2-3 inches around. A flower of a type of tree or large shrub. Anyone know?

Hey Dj .. I think you're right about it being a Mimosa tree, and I agree the leaves look a bit different compared to any others that I can find by googling around. Just the same there seems to be several variety's ... that may explain the difference in the leaves. Interesting flower just the same. Your shot (Fireflower) is very well captured.

Yup, that's a Mimosa bloom alright. They are so feather like and delicate. I just LOVE their scent too! In Louisiana the Mimosa trees are all over and in the Spring it's just awesome.But it's true, these are not the same leaves as the trees in Louisiana. Strange..well, someone will figure it out.
