White Jacaranda is a rare and elegant form of the classic jacaranda tree, producing creamy white trumpet-shaped flowers instead of the typical purple blooms. It has the same graceful, spreading habit and finely divided fern-like foliage that creates a light, airy canopy. When in flower, it provides a striking and unusual display in larger gardens, parks, and streetscapes.
