They looked like giant purple snowballs.
The droppings destroy the paint on your car, however.
Irvine is covered with them. There is another tree with a
red flower that has the tendril type bloom, I couldn't
find what they were called. Same problem with paint.
Maybe someone here more familiar with tree blooms might know.
Just called them red and purple trees, but did know the
purple was the Jacaranda.
Would have loved to visit, if you come back out, let me know.
Oh, it was the wedding of my son the Marine, and was a QUITE
busy time, indeed! We were only out there for a few days.
But, if time permits, and we get out there again with more
time available, then I will likely get in contact with a few
people. One of these days, I might actually be allowed to
retire, and then more time would be available to visit with
people.
