Due to the warm weather we had the past few weeks I have new Jacaranda buds and leaves coming out and the old yellow leaves are still on the trees..
Then there is the Wisteria its covered in buds getting fatter every day I am so excited as there will be more than last year its first flowering..
What a great time of the year this is..

I'll have to check ours... hopefully they will have some buds this year! I heard last year that the jackies are good at predicting rain as they time flowering so that they will have good rain when the seeds develop... apparently that was why many jacarandas were so late last year.

Had a look at a couple of mine... new growth just barely starting, only just a tiny green bulge so a little behind yours. Too soon to tell if there are any flower buds.
