Jacaranda ovalifolia, R. Br. (J. mimosaefolia, D. Don). Tree, 50 ft. and more: lvs. distant, spreading, oblong, villous: fls. blue (and a white variety) more or less horizontal. Brazil. B.R. 631. B.M. 2327. R.H. 1897:132. G.C. III. 36:224. G.M. 49:71.憂. ovalifolia perhaps ranks among the best flowering trees or shrubs for subtropical regions. It is now much recommended as a street tree in S. Calif., it being deciduous only in early spring. The foliage is as finely cut as a fern, symmetrical and elegant. The lvs. are decussate, distant, each one with 16 or more pairs of pinnae, each pinna having 14-24 pairs of lfts. The plant bears loose, pyramidal panicles, 8 in. high, of 40-90 blue fls., each 2 in. long and 1 1/2 in. wide, which have a long, bent, swelling tube and the 2 lobes of 1 lip smaller than the 3 other lobes. It is one of the best of foliage plants for the S., valuable alike for florists' decorations, conservatory, subtropical bedding in the N., or for lawn specimens in Fla., where, if cut back by frost, it rapidly recovers its beauty. It stands pruning well, and can be kept in regular form. There is some confusion between the names, J. ovalifolia and J. mimosaefolia, both being made in the year 1822.
