I love the mimosa.  Is the orange tree hardy?  I've got a smaller one in a pot & put it in the greenhouse during the winter.

The orange tree is in a pot on sandstone paving and the wall is south facing. This was its second winter outside and it seems ok. Afraid I don't know when or where we got it or what variety it is (it was before I started taking an interest in more than just herbs, chillies and tomatoes  :)).

Thanks all for the kind comments.
