Native to Brazil, they are called Jacaranda.



Melbourne, Perth and Cape Town have mature trees with amazing displays.



They start flowering in November.


That is a nice example.  It seems to me that Rancid has also posted pics of jacarandas, but perhaps not here.

Speaking of him, is he on strike or did he just forget to pay his internet provider?


He has been @ MMP and BF

He has a new thread here too. But, he seems to be posting less everywhere lately.

He/she/it is a socialist/progressive, a user and taker of societies resources. Don't expect any appreciation for entrepreneurs, risk or hard work.

Seems that way...  The left are often takers:  If they're not on welfare, they often work for an entity that is government (taxpayer) funded in one way or another.

I heard there were people like that on these forums.

Where!?



Lets whoop their asses.

That person would be me.....I work for the provincial civil service.

 :laugh: I know..

It's a job.

Some trees must stay, but some need to be trimmed back!  They'll start taking over just like Africans in Europe if you don't keep 'em in check.



I can drive onto Crown Land and find some trees there to cut if I need to get decent wood for burning in the stove!  Will do that once a bit more of the snow melts...

I can't actually view pics posted by registered users, since I'm a second class citizen, but I'll take your word for it that you have trees...


Your tree roots stop erosion.



Look at my trees when you sign out.

Quote from: "Mel"We cut wood here, burn wood here, and it also heats many homes here when burnt (Carbon Neutral)...

The carbon dioxide released when burning wood (about 1900g CO2 for each 1000g of wood burnt) is balanced by the fact that this carbon was taken up by the tree from the air when it grew. So this part of the emissions is carbon-neutral. However, many other chemicals are produced when wood is burnt, including one of the most potent greenhouse gases, nitrogen dioxide; although the amounts may be small (200 g of CO2 equivalent per kg of wood burnt), the gas is 300 times more potent as a greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide and lasts 120 years in the atmosphere.



Methane is also produced (70 g of CO2 equivalent per kg of wood) – 21 times more potent than CO2.

I have trees also.  This pic was taken from my back door (First tree is about 20 feet away).  My back property line extends to roughly where I marked it in pic...  It's Crown Land beyond that.



So, I have trees.  Lots of trees.  All around me.  And some of them grow rather quickly.



I won't neglect the property, as the previous owners somewhat did...  If I need to bust out the chainsaw, which I do here, I don't feel bad.



Rural living in Canada may be different than in Oz.  Where I live now, most people own a chainsaw, and know how to use one!
