My dad was visiting from Killeen. Absolutely fell in love with some
shrubs/trees that he saw. They both look spindly, like Mimosa or Mesquite.
One has bright yellow, almost popcorn-looking flowers growing in clusters.
The second looks like two-toned flowers, orange and tangerine red
blossoms.
Any idea of what I should ask for in the nurseries? Might they grow in
Killeen, 70 miles northwest of here? Thanks!

If so, I think they should be fine in Killeen. They come back from the
roots in the spring.
