Description

Bonsai Blue Dwarf Jacaranda is a revolutionary cultivar that brings the dreamy beauty of the Jacaranda within reach. This genetically compact variety blooms at a very young age with the same rich purple-blue flowers but on a small, shrub-like plant. It is perfect for large containers, small gardens, or as a manageable patio tree where the standard giant would be impossible.

Offers the coveted Jacaranda flower color on a true dwarf plant, typically growing only 10-12 feet tall and wide.
Blooms prolifically at a young age, often within the first few years, even in a large container.
An excellent candidate for container gardening on sunny patios, decks, or courtyards. Can be moved to shelter in frosty areas.
Maintains a more manageable size and produces less overall litter than the towering standard species.

Faqs

Q: Can I keep it even smaller in a pot?
A: Yes, container culture will naturally restrict its size further. You can also prune it lightly after flowering to shape it. It will not require the vast space of its parent tree.

Q: Is it as cold-sensitive as the large Jacaranda?
A: Yes, it has the same frost tenderness. The advantage is that as a container plant, it can be easily moved to a protected location like a garage or greenhouse during winter frost warnings.
