Growing & Care Tips

Engage your senses with the beautiful Jacaranda tree. With its stunning lavender-blue, trumpet-shaped flowers and delicate fern-like foliage, this tree is sure to add a touch of elegance to any landscape. The Jacaranda is a fast-growing, deciduous tree that can reach up to 50 feet tall and wide, making it an excellent choice for large gardens, parks, or streetscapes.

How to Grow

Jacaranda trees prefer full sun and well-drained soil. They are hardy in USDA zones 9-11 but can be grown in zone 8 with protection from frost. Plant in the spring or fall, and water regularly until established. Jacaranda trees are also known for their ability to thrive in hot and dry conditions.

Care Tips

Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, especially during the first year of growth. Fertilize in the spring and summer with a balanced fertilizer. Prune in the winter to maintain the shape and size of the tree. Jacaranda trees are also known to drop their leaves in the winter, so don't be alarmed if this happens.

Uses

Jacaranda trees are popular for their ornamental value, but they also provide shade and shelter for wildlife. The wood of the Jacaranda tree is highly prized for its durability and is often used in furniture making and flooring.

Planting Tips

Plant Jacaranda trees in a location where they have plenty of room to grow. They are best planted as a specimen tree, but can also be used as shade trees or for screening. Make sure to plant them away from buildings and powerlines as they can grow quite large.

Maintenance

Jacaranda trees require minimal maintenance once established. Water during dry spells and prune in the winter to maintain shape and size. Avoid planting near pools or patios as the flowers and leaves can be messy.
