The jacaranda trees have been in bloom for a while, and I have been meaning to get a photo. However, May has been a particularly gray month this year and the trees aren't as vibrant as usual. I finally decided to just go for a photo, gray sky and all.
This is the 3rd year in a row that I have visited this tree and was pleased to see it blooming as it should be this year. Last year the blooms were strangely yellow.

That time of the year when it gets warmer and sunnier and when the Jacarandas start blooming.

Dug out the old Holga, with predictably random results. This one I quite like, though. My mother and i share a love for these trees -- Sydney is awash in purple blossoms at the moment, many of which carpet the sidewalks. Lovely.

Jacaranda is the purple tree that I am fond of during spring time in California. There are so many of them in my place and I'm so glad to see them blooming along Flower St. in Downtown Los Angeles.

Captured in March.
Flowering beautifully in New Farm Park, Brisbane.
But ... are they late ... or early? Here's a little write up I just found on the Internet ...
Jacarandas usually blossom around October in Brisbane; however the flowering season has become earlier in the past two decades. Some speculate that this is due to global warming, with hot weather and an earlier rain season definitely having an impact on when the magnificent trees bloom. Generally speaking, you will see some flowers from September onwards; however, if you are booking a professional photography session or needing to make concrete plans, then October is a much safer date to choose for denser flowering on the trees and a lovely purple blanket of fallen blossoms on the grass for your photos.
Nice if viewed large.
It's that time of year when the Jacaranda trees come into bloom.
This was captured in the most magical city in the world, Sydney, right in Circular Quay.
I hope you enjoy this image.

Jacaranda is a genus of 49 species of flowering plants in the family Bignoniaceae, native to tropical and subtropical regions of Latin America and the Caribbean. It has been planted widely in Asia especially in Nepal. A cosmopolitan plant, Jacaranda mimosifolia is quite common in southern California, Florida, Mexico, Argentina, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Australia, New Zealand, Italy, Portugal, Spain and Zambia and has been introduced to most tropical and subtropical regions to the extent that it has entered the popular culture. The generic name is also used as the common name. The species are shrubs to large trees ranging in size from 20 to 30 m tall. The leaves are bipinnate in most species, pinnate or simple in a few species. The flowers are produced in conspicuous large panicles, each flower with a five-lobed blue to purple-blue corolla; a few species have white flowers. Z2_84
