What are the trees with purple flowers in southern california?
I was in LA area (Fullerton/Anaheim maybe?) many years ago and I can’t remember the name of some flowering trees I saw there.
I tthink it was early summer but I’m not totally sure of the season, and these trees were all in bloom with pretty purple flowers. They seemed to grow pretty large, they definitely weren’t bushes or anything, but normal sized trees.
Does anyone have an idea of what the trees could have been? They seemed to be pretty common. Thanks!
My bet is Jacaranda… Covered with purple flowers before the leaves come out. Much more dramatic than the other trees (Crape Myrtle etc) Gorgeous trees but cause a major mess when they drop those masses of sticky blooms.
Wikepedia has a good picture.
