The Stoner Tree

—

Start of spring: my Persian sleeping tree develops its new canopy. This seedling now passed the 2 years mark

I guess 1 or two more weeks and i can see this beauties leaves go to sleep and wake up every day again🙃

Always a tricky time with albizia's 70% of my seedlings die on the second spring. When they are about the size of this one( around 25cm). This one seems to survive dough!

Gettingg more and more foliage

She is filling up nicely, this is the tricky part( around 25-30cm) in this stage its survival of the fittest normally, and so only about 15% of albizia seedlings survive this stage.. yet its going goood

This is why i call this not the sleeping but the Stoner-tree. Albizia's or silk tree's close their leaves in the night🌗 nothing better then dropping on the cough, light a fat one and watch it go to sleep on sunset🤗

Managed to Buy, Receive and Germinate a very special Variety of Albizia. The Albizia Kalkora🙃--the Korean Sleeping tree- this stoner tree is not as beautyfull as the Albz. Julibrissin but can become double the size of it up untill 40meters. Also added a picture of the two next to eachother. Im gonna smoke and watch it close down tonight again while saying goodnight stoner tree🤗

One of my fully matured albizia's in the garden. A great shade creator and stunning flowers
