Jacaranda bonsai

[fredman]

Yeah the one I dug up was actually planted on top of a weed mat by the previous people. It created a good spread and strong bulge flare because of that. That says to me they will respond well when planted on a tile. Maybe do that in a big container or even colander.. or in the ground.

Seth,

apologies, I can't always remember the spelling - Oxalis frutescens and Petrea volubilis

I was planning for this to be a larger bonsai.

I have done a large one with Delonix r. @carp ).
JK. D.regia. There are some big ass compounds for ya! Hasn't flowered yet after 5 years, But I have hope.

It's just a pet peeve. I think common names are totally useless.

 

[Geo]

Especially when the same common name can refer to more than one species in different genera. That annoys me most.

I especially love online sites that label stuff like: Ulmus sp. ? Or how about this one: Pinus something or other...

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what is going on with the branches of some jacaranda seedlings? I noticed these growths on a couple branches, and wasn't able to find any info online. Any help would be appreciated, as this is a totally foreign tree to me.

I noticed these growths

Interesting...hope someone will be able to help.

These are very beautiful as full grown trees but aren't suitable for bonsai as the compound leaves don't reduce.
The flowers are a gorgeous purple and they profusely bloom.
They are planted outside EPCOT at Disney World and I enjoy their beauty when I visit.
They are considered an invasive species so be careful and check your local laws.

Exactly same can be said about Wisteria. But how many Wisteria Bonsai are there?
