Two days ago, in the aerial shots of southern Sydney I pointed out the abundance of jacarandas. The second shot here is cropped from one of those aerial shots, and shows the line of jacarandas along Fry Reserve in Warialda St, Kogarah.This morning I went down there just before dawn and took some shots in the early morning light.
These Brazilian natives have found a very happy home in Sydney.
Oh Sally the joy that you bring to me! This line of jacarandas along the waterfront are to die for (to dye for???)
ReplyDeleteI want them here now!
Instead we're getting beautiful yellowy gold leaves swirling around madly with the mistral...
The jacarandas are beautiful trees. Not knowing to much about horticulture (but I can read:), I wonder, are they warm weather trees?
ReplyDeleteOh! Wow!! I love these! Thank you, thank you sally for taking these photos. How splendid!
ReplyDeleteyou are pilot of plane?
ReplyDeletepretty in bottom in top
That time of year again.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful in blossom and I remember you posted this last year and equally fascinated. It's good to see this any time.
nathalie: maybe you could plant a jacaranda in a pot and bonsai it on your lovely terrace!
ReplyDeleteclueless: yes, warmer climes suit them.
bergson: lol, no, not apilot, just a passenger!
ann and ben: thanks!
They are perfectly stunning up close, but the aerial does give the full affect. Nice!
ReplyDeletemagnifique, cela fait rêver cette couleur violette sur les arbres. et bravo pour la vue aérienne
ReplyDeleteMagnificent, it is this dream violet color on the trees. And bravo for the aerial view
Love jacarandas. I drove from Hobart to Cairns and passed through a town - in New South Wales I think - just can't remember the name but it's famous for its main street being lined with these gorgeous trees. If you know the town, do tell me.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous.
I planted one in my garden but it's not yet flowered. One sees them here but not that often.
My gosh! I've never seen anything like these flowering trees. I am so glad you took these photos and put them on your blog.
ReplyDeleteJacarandas, my favorite trees! The southern hemisphere's jewels of spring.
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me my childhood in Madagascar! Thank you for the shot! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful Sally!
ReplyDeleteJilly, the town in NSW that is famous for its Jacarandas is Grafton which is in the top part of the coastline relatively close to Queensland.
