Jacaranda Tree - Jacaranda Mimosifolia, Upcountry Maui

With its clusters of fragrant purple trumpet-shaped blooms, this tree is a must see while on the island in April/May.
The sweet honey like smell of the flowers as you drive through the areas with the trees are amazing, especially after a rain. This was taken in the pouring rain while in the upcountry and the fragrance was divine!

Trees can grow from 6 - 12 m (20-40 ft) tall and just about as wide at the peak of their growth maturity.
It is believed that the Jacaranda tree which is not native to the Hawaiian Islands was most likely brought to the island of Maui by Portuguese farmers and ranchers who settled in the Upcountry Maui region in the early 1900’s.
The name’ jacaranda' comes from the South American Indian tribe Tupi-Guarani language, meaning “strong scent”.
