We assumed that they were native to Australia and in bloom all the time. Having read my Australian friend Belinda's blog I realise I am not the only one who assumed this! I have since worked out that they are actually native to South and Central America, Mexico and the Caribbean and that they only bloom in Spring!
Every Spring when they bloom it reminds me of the fun of our first visit to Australia and the excitement of our second trip as we began our adventure of creating a new life for our family here Down Under.
Thank you for the lovely up close photos of the Jacaranda Trees. My photos didnt quite capture the amazing purpleness of them!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers!
ReplyDeleteWe have jacaranda trees here in Southern California, too. I remember the first year I lived here, how surprised I was when the season changed and the trees turned purple. They are very beautiful, though.

ReplyDeleteLove this time of the year, its wonderful to be driving around seeing my favourite tree in bloom and carpeting the ground beneath in purple, wish I had one in my back yard. Lxx
