The jacaranda you've mentioned is the decorative jacaranda. Here we call it 'jacaranda 
mimoso' or street jacaranda. Planted on the streets or in the field it will yield purple 
scenty flowers.
The wood od this specie is not commercial and valuable like the jacarandas (DALBERGIA L. 
f.): D.SPRUCENA. D. VIOLACEA, D. NIGRA, D. CEARENCIS, D. DECIPULARIS.
There is no secret planting jacaranda mimoso. Independent where you plant it you'll 
always have seedlings.
Regards,
Angelo
