Silk Flowers/Trees

This is very unique shape... no chance to mistake! The name is 'Nemu-no-Ki' or Silk Flowers/Trees. The meaning of the Japanese name is sleeping trees because the leaves close at night. The botanical name is Albizia Julibrissin.







I noticed many of this tree are planted around here, though it must have been there for a long time...
