    It bloomed....It bloomed....First time ever. We have had this tree for 7 years now. We gave it to our daughter because her kitchen and dining room was all done in oriental stuff. She could see here tree right out her dining room window. Unfortunately she would never get to see the blooms but she loved her tree. Every year this time of year I took her out driving to show her all the mimosa trees blooming in our area. She truly loved the little blossom.

    *Thoughts of her looking down at her little back yard to see those flowers.*

    ALL 4 OF THE FLOWERS.... :'(

    I am pleased that it finally bloomed for us.

    So glad the mimosa has flowered for you. I'm sure your daughter would have been delighted with its pretty flowers.

    How special Barb. I am so glad you have these memories for your daughter. So many people don't have all the thought put into remembering their loved one because they don't have the time to do it. Yuo have been through so much, but have such precious memories to help you through all the hard days. Love you!
