Can you use the mimosa flowers that fall off the tree instead of picking them from the tree? I have several trees in bloom but they are extremely tall and the flowers are all at the top. Trust me, climbing the trees is not an option and there isn't a ladder tall enough.
Some would say you should only use the fallen flowers and not to pick them from the tree at all. Similar to using only downed wood for a wand, using the downed blossoms causes no harm to the tree. Though I personally think either ways is fine, so long as the tree survives, it really isa personal choice as to the details of how one gathers their magical supplies from living plants.
Mimosas are used for healing, particularly the brain as it helps to relieve anxiety, depression, and reduces stress. It will also aid prophetic dreams and the development of the third eye. Anoint the forehead prior to sleep.
Thanks for the info. My trees are really tall and loaded with blooms. When they start falling, my yard will be pink! Those thing spread like crazy. I've got mimosa trees in all sizes from itty bitty trees to huge ones and all sizes in between. We've got to clear some of them out from around our house. Can the bark and leaves be used from the really young ones? Maybe 2-5 feet tall?
I know. There's about 25 little ones all over my back yard. I don't want to waste anything. Can I use the bark and leaves? Some already have the hard outter bark and some still have the soft dark green stems. And can I do the roots the same as a bigger more established tree? Thanks! God bless
Honestly not sure if you can use the bark and leaves. I personally have only used them in apiary, since they grow in such abundance they're easy to take advantage of. It yields a semi dry, and somewhat nutty honey, if you're wondering. Hopefully someone knows better than I regarding the other plant parts.
Looked it up for you, apparently the leaves are safe to dry and use as tea. The bark seems to be largely used medicinally. The bark is allegedly mood enhancing, cleanses energetic pathways, and used as a common remedy for generalized muscular discomfort and swelling.
Every part of the tree you can use the leafs you can dry them and make tea make the tea until its a golden color not to much suger you can also make tea from the bark .the powers it the root its very hard to ding it up you can smoke for anxiety or the yea helps all organs muscle relaxation and good for high blood pressure .dandilion root is good for detox .Im A HEDGE WITCH AND ELEMENTAL HOPE THIS HELPS
