A few from around downtown last evening. High yesterday was 25°C but we're heading into a cooler, rainy weekend.

Very little green here as well. Looks like we'll get to enjoy the eighth consecutive month of 0-10°C misery as next week is forecasted to cool down again. I bet the record-warm winter in the Arctic has something to do with this.

^ I always like your Malta pics. The 5th, 6th and 7th from the bottom and 2nd from the top are my favorite.

Nei--Really nice view from the fire tower. Where was that from?

Nice photos. I love Jacaranda trees but these ones are really small. Are they young or is that as big as they will get?

This pic is from the summer of 2015 ... maybe you uploaded the wrong pic? VisitMaltaUK (Twitter) uploaded it a few days ago, but I found it on several websites posted on January, February and earlier.

https://www.atlantisgozo.com/gallery/ (right click at the pic, it says uploaded in December of 2016 in their specific website, other pages talk about summer of 2016)

Les meilleures plages de Malte

http://www.mafamillezen.com/loisirs-...-malte-ados/4/ even in March of 2016. A guy called Sue Denny uploaded it on the web in the summer of 2015.

They are very young! 3,4,7,8 and 9 pics have some mid sized ones. But most of those are very young, specially in the photo with the houses (5,6,7) they replaced some old decidious trees for new Jacarandas.

In my grandma's city there are quite old Jacarandas. In Valencia even more, click this link to see an example:

This is a street view pic of the blooming of one big Jacaranda in May of the last year:



I took this photo by myself, 2 big Jacarandas in the 2nd blooming (September)

Whoa! -those are some big photos there man, 1mb+.. That would take me a week to view all those.

Nice photos though,..... or what I saw of them. Looks weird seeing Norfolk pines there, they aren't a tree I associate with Med climates.
