Question
I have a tree that just popped up in a rose clipping I had planted. It is now 5 feet high. This tree from the beginning, has each leaf on it's stem that fold up in the evening and reopen every morning. It looks like a jacaranda...however it now has blooms that look like small bursts of little white balls.
I can not find anything on the internet that comes close. Can you help me identify this tree?
