Jacaranda mimosifolia - Jacaranda Tree

I'm envious of those plants !!!
(your home looks lovely by the way)

This isn't my home...I have many more exotic plants than these, in my garden. This photo was taken in the Mission Hills District of San Diego, CA.

The largest trees I have in my garden are: Jacaranda 50 feet/ 16 meters tall, Araucaria heterphylla - Norfolk Island Pine 80 feet / 25 meter tall and a Magnolia grandiflora - Southern Magnolia about 30 feet / 10 meters tall...and hundreds of other tropical plants.

How large are the gardens there ?? !!
You must have a lot of acres if these trees are sharing it with you !!!

Louise1:

No, it's not large...most gardens in the urban areas are pretty small in San Diego, CA. In my neighborhood some lots are very small to almost 1/2 acre. My front yard is pretty large and my backyard is somewhat small. Luckily, the Norfolk Island tree grows pretty upright. The Jacaranda spreads almost 50 feet/ 16 meters also...however, it spreads over the sidewalk and street and over part of front yard and house.

Oh i see!
Everyone gets to appreciate them then !!!

Louise1:

Yes, that's right...and I appreciate everyone's plants also. : > )
