You just need to open your eyes when walking to see…….
The purple flowers fall onto the ground, and the grass looks like a carpet of colour!
We see this tree every time we walk to school and on the way home. The trees in Mackay are magical, or maybe its because I finally am seeing whats around me that I think that?
Not sure why but I LOVE this tree….still cant work out what it reminds me of?
There Is Beauty Everywhere ~ Just need to open up your eyes when walking 🙂
Do You Like The Colour?

That is certainly a beautiful tree – particularly with the purple against the blue sky behind it! It’s nice to see the burst of colour – our leaves are all falling and winter is on the way!

Yeah it takes my breath away everytime I walk past it 🙂
Funny how we are going into summer, and you are going into winter! Do you have snow where you live? Our kids have always wanted a white xmas!
The color looks like periwinkle! It is beautiful! I don’t think I’ve ever seen this kind of tree. What is it?
Hi Wilma,
It sure is a gorgeous colour! Kathy (another reader) let us know that it is a Jacaranda Tree 🙂
Cheers

Beautiful trees, but then I LOVE trees. Love the time of year when the Jacarandas are out.
Oh so that is what the Tree is! Its a Jacarandas….hey thats why I LOVE This tree – we used to have one in our backyard at D’aguilar. It was a Pink One 🙂
And yeah I LOVE trees. Not sure what it is about them!
Cheers

I love this jacaranda! I remember last year I was travelling overseas in September-October. When I got home, and back then “home” was Adelaide, our entire street was a lilac-coloured paradise of jacaranda trees in bloom. It said “Summer” with a capital S.
Yeah trees are gorgeous when its almost summer time 🙂 And I keep noticing more wherever we are walking!
The Grafton Jacaranda Festival is on right now and guess where we are? Yep right here by happy co-incidence! new post coming up on in soon.

Gorgeous! We don’t have these in the northern hemisphere 🙂 My husband is south african and he was the first one to show me a picture of the streets covered in purple!
