Dwarf Powderpuff Tree Calliandra sp.

[JoeH]

not sure on what variety or species. Flowers are really small, have had it for a year now and trying to decide which way to go with it, pick a front, etc. Found it in a hedge row at my old job. cut it down hard and it sprouted out all over, I need to address the cut, its growing out right at it so I can probably dremel it concave and it will heal over.

Ohh, and nevermind the Resurrection Fern, I found a bunch at work growing in moss on trees and I have it in a lot of pots right now.

The leaves are totally different from the Caliandra Selloi from South America. Perhaps another species of powder puff?
Mine are the leaflets kind, look:
