Probably not consistantly warm enough for it yet to bloom down there. Ours just started recently.looks nice. Ive always wondered why ours here wait till December to start blooming
Love the jacarandas in flower. I just discovered the other day that Pretoria is also famous for jacarandas, prehaps more so then Brisbane. And apparentely because the blooming coincides with year end exams, there is a superstition at University of Pretoria that if a jacaranda flower falls on your head, then you'll pass your exams![]()
Yes, Pretoria, like Brisbane, is famous for its Jacarandas. They seem to do well in sub-tropical climates. Grafton in NSW is also very famous for these trees.
Similar to sydney uni, except it goes if you havent started studying when they bloom, youre in trouble.^^Yeah, I know there's an old thing at both Bond uni and UQ where when the jacarandas come out it's time to start studying for exams.
