Jacarandas in San DiegoJacaranda tree cleanup


Seen around the neighborhood...  

The stunning jacaranda trees that break into spring bloom,
 splash America’s Finest City with brilliant purple offering a
 bright spot to our typical May grays and June glooms!
 These colorful trees aren’t found in most of the US, but
thanks to Kate Sessions, they are easily found in Balboa
 Park and around town. Enjoy them the next several weeks.


Even though they’re a mess to clean up! >
