ABOUT

Silky pink flowers adorn the mimosa tree, filling the summer air with sweet fragrances. These flowers make the trees popular ornamental additions to gardens and parks. However, mimosas are invasive in many regions, as the tree grows rapidly from small seedpods with minimal water or tending.

Mimosa Leshies are fashion-forward creatures, putting great time and care into their looks. Carefully arranged leaves and bright pink hair provide a striking appearance, as it uses beauty to dissuade violence whenever it can.
