The beautiful flowers of Albizia ^_^

in life •  6 years ago 

In a garden close to my home there is a wonderful tree full of white-pink flowers. It's not a common tree in my area, so I searched online what kind of tree it is and I read that is an Albizia Julibrissin (also known as "silk tree") of the family Fabacee. It's a tree native to Asia, but it was introduced in Europe by the italian Filippo degli Albizzi who gave the name to this genus of tree ^_^

The leaves of this tree are very similar to the leaves of the mimosa (the acacia dealbata), but the flowers are really someting "special" ^_^

These flowers have nice shades of pink and when they are all together it looks like a pink clouds, so beautiful!

See ya soon

Such strange flowers. They look a bit like those old glass-fibre lamps with many filaments emitting light.

True!!! They look like to that '70 lamp!!! :D

Good point!

Wow! Very cool! You are right! What a small world that we would post about the same thing just a few hours apart!

Yes, the world is really small! When I read you post I was so excited to see the same tree that I saw today here, wow!

Quando si suol dire che la vera bellezza è nella semplicità. Complimenti davvero!

Concordo: la bellezza spesso si trova nella semplicità ^_^
