OK - I'm not sure if the phrase "I spy" is appropriate, because you really can't miss them. The Jacaranda trees are blooming, now - man, are they purple! It's not like they have a few nice purple flowers here and there - the entire tree is purple. They are fairly common, here, and they are like these explosions of lavender in amongst all the boring green trees.
Cool!! So are they the Australian lilacs? Do they smell?
ReplyDeleteNo - they don't really smell. :(
ReplyDeleteAnd now Ben's the one who gets purple flowers on his birthday. Wonder what eco-indicators there will be for my birthday... besides the weather getting cold - again I say :(.
