Like you, I call this a Mimosa tree! Is this what our Aussie friends call Wattle blossoms? It's lovely!

Beautiful. Hope Ray's medical problems are being sorted out. I have been meaning to email you but have had issues myself the last few weeks and this weekend we are out quite a lot. Hopefully will drop you a line next week.

A lovely early flower to find and capture with gorgeous ferny leaves and scent.

Babs, dear, thank you for remembering and asking. And yes, he can now drive again, his fainting problem is thought to have been caused by his high dose of blood pressure medication, now halved and the echocardiogram did show a very sightly leaky heart valve but nothing to be concerned about at present....

I went online and found this "Acacia dealbata, the silver wattle, blue wattle or mimosa, is a species of flowering plant in the legume family Fabaceae, native to southeastern Australia ..." So, yes!

@quietpurplehaze Thanks for doing the leg work! Legume family means that these are also the ones with the big brown seed pods!
