C. Daehler - good information :)

Yes, "mimosa" is a common name for several plants, including Albizia julibrissin (mimosa tree)

I think "Mimosa" is sometimes a confusing name because it is also a plant genus with 400 species
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimosa
and it is sometimes used for Acacia species with yellow flowers e.g.

Anyway, it's easy to add multiple common names to a spotting (spotter's option).

I see this growing wild here in Bandung, Indonesia. It certainly looks like mimosa, but the leaves don't fold when you touch them.

This appears to be mimosa.

Based on the leaflets and clustering of flowers, this is an Albizia (Albizia julibrissin)
