In hot weather and at night, the leaves are folded along the middle vein, and the entire complex leaf wilts.

The flowering starts in July and continues until mid-September or October. The leaves remain green for a long time and fall off only after the onset of cold weather. The fruit of albition is a flat, oblong, multi-seeded bean, up to 20 cm long.

Albizia prefers bright light, but not shading. Moisture-loving. Low frost resistance. Heat-loving plant.
