About the logo
Jacarandá The logo of the 32 NPS is inspired in the Jacarandá tree, which flowers in late November (the time of our symposium). Jacaranda mimosifolia  (Bignoniaceae) is native to the Atlantic forest of northern Argentina (Selva Misionera), Paraguay and southern Brazil. It has been widely planted as an ornamental tree in the streets of Buenos Aires, particularly in public parks of Palermo. its name derives from the Guarani word meaning "perfumed".
