New Farm Park Jacarandas
A recent article in the Courier Mail explains that the dying trees in New Farm Park, a local Brisbane landmark are simply old.
Jacaranda plants, native of Brazil, grow well in Brisbane and produce a stunning purple floral display. The ones in New Farm are very mature as they were planted as early as 1914.
They’ve begun to fall and many have had to be removed. Fortunately council has a replacement program in place.
