Title: Mimosa Scabrella
Post by: husk on January 10, 2019, 11:59:16 PM

Hello everyone,

I had tried to get this one spread around a bit back in 2016 I believe, I know I sent out plenty of seeds in hopes that they would be grown but I haven't found mention of Mimosa Scabrella being grown on this site.

Has anyone grown it? I know I sent out hundreds of seeds, surely someone has grown this. My own experience was that it was a very fast grower with little maintenance, I regret to say I had to move and couldn't keep it.

I got a few small trees going and even saved some of your seeds, I could send them to you if you want. Mine didn't grow much faster than M hostillis

I don't believe I need any seeds, from my memory I still have some I just have to dig through boxes in storage to find them again.

Do you have any pictures of the trees?

I had taken a bunch of pictures as they grew up near some m tenuiflora but I lost the camera they were on. I'll take some on my phone tomorrow.

Hello again all,

Have been planning on seeing if there is interest in this again as I plan on perhaps planting some.

I have seeds if anyone would like their own.

Yes! I too am interested in Mimosa scabrella and Incarvillea delavayi, I have been looking for alternate Mimosa species and an Incarvillea species for a long time!

I'm highly interested in doing a closely documented grow. PM incoming.

Is this hardier than M. hostilis?

I've heard there is a mature specimen growing somewhere in England.
