Mimosa Tree Plant. In regions with harsh winters, your best option is to plant your mimosa tree in large pots so that you may bring them indoors over winter. Online and in books, you will frequently hear horror stories about these plants, which can be hugely invasive in some areas.
However, it is important that the root ball never dries out completely. Mimosa trees will grow in conditions from full sun to partial shade. In arid regions, some afternoon shade is acceptable for healthy growth.
