Hi all

I have a Mimosa tree that I took from a field as a sapling. I had taken
it home and replanted it in a small flower pot. Today it is in a bigger
pot about 15" at the rim and now is a healthy
1 year old about 2 feet tall.

My questions to you are...

When should I expect to see blooms? call me impatient ; )

Will it stay small or go root bound?

Should I repot it, but I would like it too stay small... anyway to keep
it that way?

Prune it maybe? I sometimes like to bring it into my home it is
currently outside enjoying the warm weather and sun. I live in Southern
New Jersey. It is now summer at the moment.

I read on one forum that this one woman had her beautiful small Mimosa
potted for 11 years but no other details were given.

I was just looking for some advice. I love my Mimosa it brings me alot
of joy and beauty.
I would like to keep us both happy for many years to come : )

Thanks in advance.

PS I know for all that are out there that there are some that do not
like Mimosas and I know they can become invasive and neighbors may not
like them etc.
I have checked with neighbors they are fine with it. As for the seed
pods...
I will be pulling them before they hit the ground. So please I know. I
have it all covered.
I just dont want my posted message to be filled with all negative
replys about Mimosa trees.
I know there are Mimosa lovers out there. I'll look forward to your
replys : )
