This small tree stands out with its delicate, feathery, fern-like foliage, but its true beauty reveals itself in summer when it blooms with incredibly magnificent, fluffy, and sweetly scented pink flowers that look like fine silk tassels. One of its most magical features is the leaves' ability to move – every evening, at dusk (and also during heavy rain), the delicate leaflets neatly fold toward the stem as if going to sleep, and in the morning they open again facing the sun. It is a fast-growing, sun-loving \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"647\"\u003eterrace and indoor plant\u003c\/b\u003e that will add an airy, oriental, and delicate natural accent to any \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"685\"\u003eenvironment\u003c\/b\u003e.

For the silk acacia to develop well and bloom magnificently in the future, it vitally needs a large amount of sun. A south or southwest-facing location is absolutely ideal.

During this time, watering should be reduced to an absolute minimum (just enough to prevent the roots from drying out completely) and the plant should be kept cool. In spring, new beautiful leaves will sprout from the buds again! Also, don’t be afraid if the small tree \"lowers its ears\" and folds its leaves in the evenings – this is a normal prayer or sleeping process (nyctinasty). The plant has a strong root system, so in the future, when repotting, choose a deeper pot and airy soil with excellent drainage. Don’t forget to boldly prune it in spring to form a lush and symmetrical crown!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"augi-plants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54368104022345,"sku":null,"price":48.75,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/0252\/1918\/files\/FullSizeRender_f24caa20-b5be-433d-aa96-fef60158ef7d.heic?v=1778661876","url":"https:\/\/www.augi-plants.lv\/en\/products\/albizia-julibrissin","provider":"www.augi-plants.lv","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
