Summer Chocolate Mimosa

Summer Chocolate Mimosa offers unique color and texture that instantly elevates any outdoor space. Its finely cut, fern-like foliage emerges as a deep burgundy, maturing into a rich chocolate color that creates a stunning backdrop for the hot pink, powder-puff flowers blooming in summer. As the seasons change, the foliage transitions to warm shades of orange and red in fall, adding dynamic, multi-season interest. Reaching around 20 feet tall and spreading up to 15 feet wide at maturity, this small deciduous tree provides graceful structure without overwhelming nearby plantings. The naturally spreading canopy casts dappled shade, perfect for patios, seating areas, or as a striking focal point.
