Jacaranda mimosifolia (Blue Jacaranda)

5 from 1 customers

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.
