Why choose a Jacaranda mimosifolia 300mm?

Jacaranda is a celebrated feature tree, with fine fern-like foliage and spectacular violet-purple flower clusters in spring to early summer. Its airy canopy provides dappled shade and makes a dramatic centrepiece for a larger garden.

How can I use it in my garden?

• Plant as a feature tree in a lawn for seasonal colour and dappled shade.

• Grow near a patio or entertaining area to enjoy the flowers overhead.

• Use in a larger front garden for a colourful statement tree.

Where does it grow best?

Choose a sheltered position in full sun for the best flowering and well-drained soil. Keep the soil evenly moist while it establishes; it is drought tolerant once established, but the original notes advise protecting young trees from harsh frost and hot winds.

What does it look like through the year?

Fine, fern-like foliage creates soft texture and light shade, and violet-purple flower clusters appear in spring to early summer. In cooler climates it may be semi-deciduous to deciduous and can lose its leaves in winter.
