--Where can I find Jacaranda Plants/Seeds -

Question

Hello,I am trying to find a fern like plant.. I believe it is calledJacaranda.  I first saw it in Mexico in the San Luis Potosi State.  Noone seems to have heard of it in the states. I have also gone back toanother region of Mexico and have asked about it and no one knew what Iwas talking about.  Also would this plant be considered a tropicalplant?  Live in the Midwest and am wondering if I would need to bringit in during the winters.  Would this plant be started as seedlings orcuttings?  Thanks,Jeano

Hi, If this is the plant you are looking for

it is a "ferny" looking tropical tree (Jacaranda mimosifolia) and won't do well in the Midwest. Seeds are available on Ebay. HTH -_- how no NEWS is good

X-No-Archive:yesWhere are you located?  Full grown Jacaranda trees are beautiful  - theentrance to the Jacaranda Country Club in Plantation Florida is linedwith them and they are magnificent.

I unfortunaly live outside Chicago. I have a little greenhouse window. I am sure Jacaranda can not withstand the harsh climate. I didn"t realize jacarandas grew to be trees. The ones I saw were small. Now I am going to make it a point to visit Plantation Florida to see the Jacaranda trees. I have visited our local botanical gardens which have an indoor tropical display, but they did not have jacaranda trees as part of their plant collection. Thank you for the info on the country club.
