November is Jacaranda time in Sydney. The trees all over Sydney are covered in purple blossoms during November (December for Melbourne). The tree is not a native, but rather springs from Brazil, or perhaps originating in Gondwana - the super continent consisting of South America, Africa and Australia in the long distant past.
Early blooming on a tree visible from my back patio. The flowers are not yet in full bloom.
Another neighbour's tree starting to bloom.
