The Jacarandas are impressive trees in May when covered with clusters of blue tubular flowers. A variety ‘Alba’ with white flowers, and denser foliage, is occasionally available. Moderate to fast growth during the warm season. Can be completely wintered deciduous in colder areas. There are white and pink also. If the tree is given too much water, the leaves appear first, somewhat spoiling the startling effect of the flowers. The flowers are followed by woody, disc-shaped seed pods.
