Flame of the forest puts on a rare yellow face in Mangar’s Aravalis: Morph Palash tree becomes a point of scientific interest

Ecologist Sunil Harsana said on Monday this was probably the first such occurrence in the Aravalis of Gurgaon and Faridabad. "Discovering a yellow palash is akin to finding a concealed treasure. Unlike the prevalent red flowers, this variant contributes a distinctive chromatic element to our forests, underscoring the remarkable biodiversity within our ecosystem. This is rare," he told TOI.
