A social media post by Aanchal Mishra highlighting Bengaluru's spring beauty, with clear skies and blooming pink Tabebuia trees, has gone viral, offering a positive view beyond the city's traffic reputation. The pink Tabebuia trees, introduced in the 1980s as part of urban reforestation efforts led by an IFS officer, have become a seasonal highlight. Additionally, a local techie developed an interactive website to help residents locate these blooms, combining government tree census data and community input to map the flowering trees across Bengaluru.
