from Haritha Haram_2020
Along the Main Carriage Way (MCW) of the ORR, single-row avenue plants were raised 3 metres apart in a thematic way. Flowering species of similar hues were chosen and planted over a stretch of 10 km on both sides of the MCW shoulders. Situated behind crash guards, the planted species include Bauhinia, Golden shower tree (Cassia fistula), Trumpet tree (Tabebuia), African tuliptree (Spathodia), Bignonia and Jacaranda plants. Adjacent to the MCW Avenue Plantation row, shrubbery comprising a row of flowering species were planted a meter apart on either side of the Main Carriage Way. The species used are Gaudi Chaudi (Tecoma guadichoudi) and Peacock Flower (Caesalpinia pulcherrima).
