Jacaranda Trees



One of the Jacaranda lined streets in Johannesburg South Africa. These trees form part of what is regarded as the biggest man made forest in the world. Johannesburg is on what is known as the highfeld - what used to be grass land. Settlers planted trees along streets and next to their houses creating a forest that impacted on rain fall patterns.
