Thanks so much for the kind words. The tree in picture 6 is called a Mamosa tree or Silk tree. and the tree in picture 9 is called a smoke tree. It is smoking in the picture. Here's a couple more

Thank you everyone!! I'm glad you all like it. I don't get much company so I'm glad I could show it off. It's a lot of hard work to keep it but I love doing it. And it's a shame not to have someone to share it with. So thanks for letting me put so many pictures up.
