I love this time of year when the purple flowering plants are in full swing – the Jacarandas and the Agapanthus.
I don’t mind wading through a sea of purple.
Then the view is ruined by this, although, luckily not a common occurrence.
Good morning Wordless Wednesday. All those other words are in me waiting to come out – really.
Alison says
I love Jacarandas too.
Mandy says
you’re so right, that isn’t much of a pleasent way to start the morning.
glad it’s not a regular occurance, hope it wasn’t too disstressing.
visiting via ww. love you to stop by and say hello.

There is something magical about a carpet of Jacaranda flowers. We have lots in Brisbane however I can’t get my Agapanthus to flower. I know they are super hardy, so it must be me!

Great pictures. I too love Jacarandas. Sadly, they have already shed their flowers for us this year….
Alicia says
The colour in these trees is beautiful and the carpet they make. Shame about the car in your street to ruin the view.
Tamara says
I love the treatment of your photos
Emily says
I miss flowers here in Queensland, it’s too hot for the gorgeous ones I had growing up in NZ.

I don’t know why, but my email subscription of your blog seems to be running a day late!! I love Jacarandas – but the association up here for ANYONE who has ever studied in Brisbane is exams…
My hippies have just finished flowering, and the frangipannis are going full tilt at the moment – it does get hot over summer and all but the alyssium hide from the sun, but the fringe seasons get a lot of compensation.
As to the car – needs new seat covers…? I can’t stand the selfishness of such an act – where do some people get off?
Trish says
I love Jacaranda Trees – terrible about the car though.
