Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
A Jacaranda Tree in Harringay??? Really???
I've been looking at this beautiful tree through my office window for the past week or so and thinking that I don't remember having seen it before. But it's not a young tree.
So I went to the next street with my camera and took a few snaps.
I looked it up on the web when I got back and the only match I can find is jacaranda tree.
I didn't think they grew here, but RHS says "Jacaranda mimosifolia - widely grown in warmer regions and familiar to many from holidays to such parts - is available in the UK." So perhaps this is a Jacaranda.
And here's a typical Harringay scene (clears throat) - a spreading chestnut tree over the New River framed by a jacaranda tree.
