Jacaranda's at my Window!

'Jacaranda's at my Window' is my entry for #WindowMonday #SevenDaysOutside Challenge organized by @erikah

Jacarandas (Jacaranda Mimosifoila) make a vibrant statement on their own but in a group they are even more beautiful. They are native to Brazil where they are deciduous due to monsoonal wet seasons. Jacaranda is the name of a genus of 49 species of trees and shrubs.

These are the days and the categories:

They grow up to 15 metres tall and can be just as wide and although most people are familiar with the mauve/purple coloured flowers there is a much rarer white variety, appropriately called, White Christmas. These trees thrive in tropical climates but can tolerate light frosts although their floral display is less impressive.

I almost missed this beauty. I love the purple flowers!

Hi Erikah. Thank you .........the jacaranda flowers look great just before Christmas where their purple blooms line the streets of Brisbane. It is a beautiful sight.

How strange to hear that flowers are blooming before Christmas 😊
I know you Aussies are celebrating Christmas on the beach 🌊, for us Christmas means 🎄🎅⛄❄ and cold 😊 and imported flowers 😉

Yeah......we’re a strange mob down here @erikah I’d really love to experience a white Christmas at least once in my life. 😊🎄❄️☃️

But at least do you have Christmas tree 🎄 at Christmas? 😃

Oh yes........we still do the decorations with tress and lights etc. Some entire streets look awesome when homes are decorated with amazing Christmas themes. I'll have to do a neighbourhood tour and take photos next Christmas. (:

Don't tell me you don't have any!?!?! 😭

I haven’t got any of the Christmas street lights Erikah but I hope to fix that problem next Christmas. 😊

How glorious!! Love to have this tree at my window, Trudee...hello!! :)

Hello dear Jolanta. These flowers are situated at another venue. I used that title for lack of another one at the time. It's so wonderful to know you are here. xox

Oh, thank you, Trudee :) it is so lovely to see so many familiar faces here :)

That’s a great bonus isn’t it Jolanta?

Indeed, it is!! How can I go wrong with all the support of my chums from various sites?? xx

Exactly @artbyjolla This has certainly helped me too. 🌺

As you know, Trudee...I fell in love with this tree...and after commenting on it few days ago...I am back for it...:)

Thanks so much Jolanta. Have a wonderful week.
