Hey everyone I recent acquired two Mimosa seedlings from a local nursery and upon doing some research I found that in colder climates (down to zone 6) this tree takes on a deciduous growth pattern. My main question is does this tree need to have a dormant period or benefit from one when grown in a cold climate?? I would assume not, seeing as this tree grows in up to zone 10 but have no experience with the species. Secondly does anyone have any species specific advice on any individualistic care or needs for this plant (or any concerning growing it in a older climate as a tropical)?
