Jacaranda Mimosifolia is a brilliant variety of tree jacaranda. This elegant tree produces interesting and peculiar fern-like foliage which is punctuated by an amazing blanket of mauve/lilac flowers that engulf the entire tree canopy for several months. The flowers of Jacaranda Mimosifolia are blend of mauve-purple when they first emerge and fade to a light lilac colour. Jacaranda Mimosifolia is a quick-growing large tree, suitable as a feature or as part of a large landscape. Jacaranda Mimosifolia is suitable as a bonsai, provided the germinated seeds are grown in a low-organic matter soil, to ensure the plant is not to vigorous. The tap-root should either be snipped or curled (J-rooted) within the first 8-weeks, to ensure the plant remains suitable for bonsai.
