I think branch cutting can root also in this species, but not easy for sure

From a study from Harvard University:
"Albizia julibrissin does not propagate from ordinary stem cuttings but can be reproduced from root cuttings taken in late winter or early spring. Commercial nursery practice is to take root pieces in spring and line them out in nursery rows."
My own knowledge of this information was from Dirr's book on woody plant propagation. Apparently Harvard agrees.

Post your seedlings too! I wanna see updates from our look-a-like trees
the Brazillian Leopards? No noteworthy change at the moment but the weather has been cool again with not much sun so I haven’t updated their thread.
As for the missing Albizia seeds, yeah those are not coming. Should have arrived by now so definitely either lost or confiscated due to their mislabeling.

You should try to order some new seeds. I’ve seen other websites that’ll sell like 50 of them for $5.00. Also yes I mean the leopards
Nah I’ll pass on the Albizia I’ll wait for my real BRT from @leatherback once the weather gets warmer.You should try to order some new seeds. I’ve seen other websites that’ll sell like 50 of them for $5.00. Also yes I mean the leopards

No worry my friend. This cotyledon leaves should drop off. From a quick google search read this:
Cotyledons are the first leaves produced by plants. Cotyledons are not considered true leaves and are sometimes referred to as "seed leaves," because they are actually part of the seed or embryo of the plant. The seed leaves serve to access the stored nutrients in the seed, feeding it until the true leaves develop and begin photosynthesizing.

It’s kis
It’s just strange that my bigger Albizias haven’t yellowed at all. I broke up the soil a bit in case the roots weren’t getting air

The picture you offered showed the cotyledon leaves yellowing. This is normal. Do you have true leaves yellowing?

Nope, the newer leaves are as healthy as they can be

Then it is the nature of the beast. No worry.
Keep a lookout for spider mites though.

The only problem I have right now on my Jade is flea beetles and scale bugs. It’s been too cold to take it outside to spray and I work today and tomorrow sadly. But Sunday I’ll probably take some Neem oil to it
