Curiosity about me
The important moments in your tree's life.
Let's start with introductions
The scientific name of this tree is Jacaranda mimosifolia. It’s known by numerous common names, including Blue Jacaranda and Nupur. For the sake of convenience, we’ll simply call it Jacaranda. It’s a tree that can grow up to 20 metres in height and is at home in many tropical regions. Native to South America, it’s now found in many parts of the world. It’s often used as an ornamental tree. Its beautiful, striking flowers produce small, reddish-brown capsule-shaped fruit. As part of an agroforestry project, Jacaranda provides shade and is often planted as a windbreak.

How much CO2 I’ll absorb
My estimated CO2 absorption capacity is based on the first 10 years of my life*
Current absorption
- 0 kg
2024
0 kg
2034
-700 kg
* The tree will continue to absorb CO2 even after the tenth year. Therefore this is a prudent estimate.
