Commonly planted near back patios because they attract hummingbirds like no other tree we've ever seen. Great where you need a small to medium sized ornamental. Mimosa trees rapidly grow to about 20-25 ft. They have a tropical look, but are very hardy. They adapt to almost any soil type. They are drought tolerant and can be planted in full sun or partial shade. Fragrant, hot pink blooms grow in clusters, adding an explosion of color and excitement to any spring setting. These trees can grow either as single-stem or multi-trunk trees. The bark is a gentle light gray, giving you a beautiful contrast of color. Easy to grow tree, even tolerates drought conditions. Also known as the "Silk Tree" because of its stunning, shimmering flowers. If my Mom's yard is to be considered, they are a pest tree that spreads everywhere and is a pain to get rid of. She also said never plant them near your water lines, like weeping willows, they search out water sources and do anything to get to them (crush lines with roots) so good luck and be careful.

What happens if you grow a plant in the shade?

It depends on the plant, some love sun, others shade. Hosta, for example, loves shade, and thrive with no sun at all. Typically those plants that do well on shade have large leaves, allowing them to get more light for photosynthesis without actual sun. Sun loving plants including most vegetables and fruit trees will have a hard time in shade, and grow long, leggy thin branches as they try to get to better light.

No, direct sunlight will not damage a money tree plant. Money trees thrive in full sun and partial shade; outdoor plants do not need direct sunlight. However, plants grown indoors will do best in full, bright light.
