blue hydrangea tree
The blue hydrangea tree is a stunning addition to any New Zealand garden, famous for its lush, globe-shaped clusters of vibrant blue flowers displayed atop attractive woody stems. While the term "blue hydrangea tree" commonly refers to hydrangeas pruned into a tree form, these beloved shrubs naturally lend themselves to both shrub and small tree shapes with the right care and training. Their show-stopping flowers light up shaded and partly sunny spots from late spring well into summer, making them favourites for borders, cottage gardens, and statement container displays. For gardening enthusiasts who appreciate colour as well as structure, few plants can match the blue hydrangea tree’s versatility and allure.

Jacaranda mimosifolia (Blue Jacaranda)
Jacaranda mimosifolia, commonly known as the Blue Jacaranda tree, is a tropical-looking tree that is widely planted because of its beautiful and long-lasting blue flowers. Loose clusters of the deep blue-mauve flowers are borne across the tree through spring and summer. The dark green foliage has a fern-like appearance, and in warm climates, it remains evergreen; otherwise, it is deciduous. It typically grows to 12 m tall and 8 m wide. Jacaranda mimosifolia is commonly used in avenue plantings to provide an unforgettable sight, grown as a specimen, added to a mixed planting, or included in a ‘tropical’ garden.
