Texas Ebony (pithecolobium flexicaule)
Product Code: e1556
The short branches are clothed in tiny dark green, bi-pinnate (compound) leaflets and make a wide rounded canopy which casts a filtered shade below. Acacia/Mimosa family. 10"-11" tall. Great bonsai for indoors. Native to Texas and Mexico and is ideal for dry, indoor locations. Dark brown woody seed capsules follow the blooms and persist on the tree for weeks. From June to August it is decorated with dense, plume-like spikes of very fragrant, light yellow to white blossoms at the end of its branches. Leaves fold up at night or in subdued light. Short thorns are interspersed among the branches. Suitable 8" x 6" humidity tray is recommended. Shipped via UPS 2-3 days $11.95 To purchase add $3.50. Touching the leaves does not put it to sleep as with some Mimosa. In Mexico these seed pods are eaten and the shells roasted and used as a coffee substitute. 8 years old.
