When Korea, Japan, or Europe are immersed in the romantic red color of autumn, Australia is dyeing the spring sky purple with the Jacaranda flower season on the other side of the hemisphere. Walking through Sydney’s streets on a cool spring day, everyone is taken aback by the jacaranda sky. Purple-covered phoenix trees all over the streets and parks make the hearts of travelers flutter.
Spring in Australia starts in September when the Jacaranda purple flowers bloom. Purple jacaranda is grown widely in Sydney and other cities in the country of kangaroos. Indigenous people often tell each other about many stories behind the flower that signals spring in the kangaroo country. One of them is the story about the plant first brought to a beauty show, then began to be grown in the Australian states in the early 20th century. However, no matter how it appears, the purple jacaranda tree has become a symbol of spring in Australia. This flower variety originates from South America and belongs to the chili pepper family. When there are no flowers, the plant has an appearance resembling a phoenix. Only when spring comes, purple flowers cover everywhere. Typically, a purple poinciana season can last from four to six months.

By October, the entire sky appears to be engulfed in the stunning purple color and pleasant fragrance of Jacaranda. Each delicate bell flower petal flutters in the sunshine, making it exceedingly adorable. When the spring breeze blows, each flower departs the scene, leaving a purple carpet on the ground, creating a charming, enticing paradise.
