I found this guy some weeks back. He decided to lay down roots between my Don Juan rose and my Wisteria. Because he was growing so fast and his leaves very much like my Prince Poins leaves, I thought I would let him stay.

Here is this guy. Now we have a small tree around here Ive been seeing. It looks alot like what Prince Poins will look like fully grown but not nearly as big. Instead of red flowers, it has pink. Im starting to wonder if this is a wayward seed of that. We have these little guys growing everywhere but we mow them down. They are thought of as a weed.




It behaves the same way as Prince Poins as in it curls its leaves at night. And it grows super fast.

It certainly looks an awful lot like Prince Poins Denee - maybe a wild or slightly different species? It could also be some kind of mimosa but hey I really haven't got a clue!! Hope somebody else can help you out.
