01Narrative

Mimosa turneri, the desert mimosa, is a perennial small- to medium-sized shrub native to the Southern United States and particularly abundant in Texas. It grows between 3.5 and tall and produces pink flowers. In many places it is considered a weed because it can grow invasively in moist soils.
