I Planted a Mimosa/Silk Tree 4 Years ago in NE Ohio Help!!!
Comments (81)Krycek1984, I want to address a few points brought up in your post. First, there's really need for more personal attacks. There were enough of those already in this thread. While I sometimes disagree with iforgotitsonevermind, she certainly isn't generally ignorant, and even when she and I see things in almost totally opposite ways, I don't think she tries to be arrogant. Maybe she gets a little over excited, but don't well all. Iforgotitsonevermind's concern was not whether mimosa is currently considered an invasive pest in the area, but whether it had the potential to be in the near future. Your assurance that it "will not become an invasive species unless global warming goes crazy", falls short of convincing me. As I said above, I'm not convinced that it will ever become a problem, but your assertion, that it's not even close, doesn't convince me the other way, either, and seems to be based more on feeling than proof. Your question about who cares if you plant Bradford pears can have many answers including a number of invasive plant groups (which are concerned about their damage to the environment in many areas), neighbors (who worry about the trees falling over the property line onto their car, producing a foul smell, or making the neighborhood ugly when they fall apart at an early age), and those that want to share information they've learned from their mistakes or observations....See MoreBought two years ago, but...
Comments (11)Well, now we know it is a Thalictrum and may be the one you named. Someone mentioned the native T. thalictroides, but the ones I have are not like this one. Anyway, I think the mystery is solved. Thanks to all. Now I have another one to post later. Tags go missing due to critters and wind, and last year due to an injury I didn't do much if any gardening. Need to sharpen skills again....See MoreLooking for ID on two irises & an azalea

Comments (4)Looks like Indigofera tends to be pinnate. https://images.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search;_ylt=AwrTcd58ywtYnqQAnS0PxQt.;_ylu=X3oDMTByNWU4cGh1BGNvbG8DZ3ExBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDBHNlYwNzYw--?p=Indigofera&fr=yhs-avast-brwsr001&hspart=avast&hsimp=yhs-brwsr001 And a print reference I have here says "usually pinnate"....See Moreedlafave
