■ 【Fruiting-88】
In late December, the silk tree still had green leaves, and seed-filled pods were hanging from its branches.
■ The silk tree (Albizia julibrissin) is a deciduous tall tree belonging to the legume family (Fabaceae).
■ It is well known for its “sleep movement,” in which the small leaflets close and droop at night. This leaf-“sleeping” behavior is the origin of the name Nemunoki (silk tree).
■ It grows in mountains and along riverbanks from the Tohoku region southward, and produces beautiful flowers from the end of the rainy season through summer.
■ It leafs out in late spring (late April to early May), blooms in summer (June–July) with beautiful flowers bearing long pink stamens, and in autumn the pods mature; the seeds are then dispersed during winter.
■ A characteristic feature of its leaf fall is that the entire compound leaf does not drop at once; instead, the small leaflets fall separately. The photo on the right shows leaves that were slow to fall.
■ Even after leaf fall, long, slender bean-like pods remain on the branches, as shown in the photo.

■ 🌸【Silk Tree After Bloom】
In Tokyo, the peak blooming of the Albizia julibrissin (commonly known as the silk tree or nemunoki) ended in early July. This video shows the flowers about two weeks past their prime.
■ A deciduous tall tree in the legume family, the nemunoki blooms in early summer with deep pink, brush-like flowers—those “bristles” are actually long stamens.
■ A unique feature is its “sleep movement”—its leaves close at night, inspiring the Japanese name nemunoki (meaning “sleeping tree”).
■ The kanji name 合歓 (“shared joy”) comes from ancient imagery of lovers leaning together as the leaves close.
■ It appears in three poems in the Manyōshū, showing its long-standing cultural appeal.
■ Native to temperate and subtropical Asia, including Japan.
■ The seeds are moderately toxic to dogs and cats if ingested, but not harmful to humans.
