Statement of Significance
Applecross has streets lined with mature jacaranda trees and plane trees which provide an important environmental character to the Applecross location. The extent of the mature plantings reinforces the character of the tree species, the suitability for verge planting, and an enhancement of the residential district.
Physical Description
Jacaranda mimosaefolia. Mature jacaranda trees planted in the street verges of the Applecross locality. Platanus. Mature plane trees in the street verges of the Applecross locality. Apart from ongoing arboricultural management, it is acknowledged that, from time to time, replacement of trees will be necessary and with the same species being maintained.
History
Applecross hosts a "Jacaranda Festival" each year in November. The festival is held in the Applecross Village district, and surrounding local businesses sell products and foods in aid of the local Rotary Club chapter. The use of these two tree species is indicative of Local Government policy to appropriately enhance the residential locality.
