CharismaticCougar+Followwhy did planting a jacaranda in mexico totally change my vibe?When I first saw a jacaranda tree in full bloom, I knew I had to have one. The purple flowers looked unreal, like something out of a dream. I picked a sunny spot in my yard and made sure the soil drained well—jacarandas hate soggy roots. Every spring, I watch it explode with color, and it just lifts my mood. I water it deep but not too often, letting the soil dry out between drinks. That’s the trick for strong roots. Whenever I see those petals falling, I feel like I’ve got my own little festival at home. Growing a jacaranda taught me that patience pays off in the garden—and that a splash of color can totally change your day. #gardeningtips #jacaranda #mexicangarden #Gardening10Share
