Re: [MattA] Jacaranda mimosifolia
I'm going to be interested to see what you do with this one Matt. I had a small Jac once and I found the leaf structure difficult to manage. Good luck with it. Interesting choice.
Cheers,
Andrew

Andrew, I already have one shohin jac so thought why not another, leaves & styling is tentative at this size but they can look ok if you squint thru one eye sideways at them
