Yes they appear to be beautiful.
Caution on planting any invasive species. My daughter in CT HAD the most GORGEOUS Mimosa tree. Another invasive species. She had the hardest time ridding her entire yard if this tree and it’s offshoots, never mind the neighbor complaints about off shoots. Mimosas are all over Lake Ella road in the wooded area’s, closest to 441.
