This selection of "Mimosa Tree" will captivate you , the moment you set eyes on it. Draped in large fern-like, compound leaves, that emerge a pale bronze green, and then age to burgundy brown, 'Summer Chocolate looks like it stepped out of the tropics. Fuzzy, fragrant soft whitish pink, round flower heads stand out well against the cloak of chocolate leaves, in mid to late summer. Winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit
