Looking forward to growing a mimosa or acacia tree hardy to zone 5. Any recommendations?

Hardest I know of is Acacia Acuminata but it only is hardy to zone 8 at best (I believe)

Have you looked into Phalaris ?

Desmanthus Illinoisinsis maybe?

My understanding about Desmanthus Illinoisinsis is that the desirable pheno's are few and far in between ?

D. leptolobus might be more reliable.

what about acacia maidenii?
they are hardy to about -12 or so arent they?
