| Albizia julibrissin
is a deciduous tree with gray-brown barks found in riverbanks or
wastelands in rural districts. Phyllotaxis being alternate, leaves
are of a bipinnate compound, 20-30cm long, with 7-12 pairs of
opposite laminae with 15-30 pairs of leaflets. The leaflets measure
1-1.7cm long and 4-6mm wide. As nights set in, the leaves hang, and
the leaflets close as in sleep. Flowers, 10-20 in number, light red,
put themselves on branch ends in a headway. Petals are connate to
halfway upward and layout to become funnel-shape. Stamens are many,
3-4cm long, and protrude long from the flowers - prominent. Bloom
time: June-July. |
