1. I thought jacaranda was an animal, but maybe I'm thinking of jaguarundi.

2. Glad you enjoyed it, and it's most definitely a plant, my dear Ocelot II!

They grow all over Los Angeles and many neighborhoods have rows of them as they meet over the tops of the streets! Magnificent sight!

13. Probably better than having rows of jaguarundis meeting over the tops of the streets.
