Jacaranda
Jacaranda is a sub-tropical tree native to South America that has been widely planted elsewhere because of its beautiful and long-lasting bluey purple flowers. It is regarded as an invasive species in parts of South Africa, and Queensland Australia, the latter of which has had problems with blue Jacaranda preventing the growth of native species. The tree grows to a height of 5 to 15m tall. The wood is pale grey to whitish, with straight grain, relatively soft and knot free. It dries without difficulty and is often used in its green or wet state for turnery and bowl carving. Jacaranda is not a commercially available timber.
