Paulownia, now identified

I always thought Jacarandas were bluer than these. Could be because they're past their best.
Thought it would be a good one for seasons. We are in Spring not Autumn or Fall

Lovely capture, they could well be Jacarandas, I am surprised that they are so tall and yet the stem is so thin.

@ludwigsdiana LOL, there was a sign, saying “keep out,falling trees”

A most unusual patch of jacarandas! Nicely captured.

I think you would find these a Paulownia .. they were all the thing to grow a few years back a cattle fodder ( the large leaves) and the would for firewood ... and as they are growing like this I would say that is what they are .. they are flowering this time of the year but Jacaranda are a little later..

@julzmaioro thanks Julia! I thought they looked different to the jacarandas I’m familiar to, but I was told otherwise. Nice to know their identity. I even did a google search but couldn’t find the answer

Lovely wood - I like all the dappled shadows.
