Dwarf Jacaranda Bonsai Blue 15gal

Dwarf Jacaranda Bonsai Blue Jacaranda mimosifolia 'Sakar1'  brings vivid, tropical elegance to smaller landscapes. Tailor-made for compact garden spaces, this dwarf cultivar delivers all the beauty of a traditional Jacaranda tree without taking over your yard.

Key Highlights

• Compact Growth: Reaches a manageable 10–12 feet tall and wide, forming a dense, multi-trunked shrub or small tree habit.

• Vibrant Floral Display: Produces showy, bell-shaped clusters of deep purple-blue blooms spring through summer at a much younger age than standard varieties.

• Feathery Foliage: Features fine-textured, bright green, fern-like foliage that creates light, dappled shade.

• Non-Invasive Roots: Possesses a shallow, fibrous root system, making it safe to plant near patios, walkways, or foundations.

• Low Maintenance: Highly drought-tolerant once established and thrives in well-drained soil with full sun exposure.

• ☀️ Light: Full Sun (6+ hours of direct sunlight daily for maximum purple blooms).
• 💧 Water: Moderate. Drought-tolerant once established. Requires well drained soil. Do not let roots sit in soggy soil.
• 🌱 Soil: Thrives in sandy, well-draining soils. 
• ❄️ Hardiness: Acts as a semi-deciduous shrub/tree in Central Florida; drops leaves in late winter and wakes up in mid-spring.

Landscape Uses

• Patio Containers: Ideal as a striking focal point in large decorative pots or urns.

• Urban & Small Gardens: Fits seamlessly into tight residential yards, urban landscapes, and courtyard spaces.

• Garden Borders & Entryways: Perfect for framing pathways, driveways, or mixing into perennial beds for dramatic height and color.

*Plant in the ground using a Success Kit or in a large container using FoxFarm Happy Frog amended with extra perlite.
