Rainforest-themed botanical garden to bring Kodagu, Ooty atmosphere to Bengaluru's Lalbagh

A special rainforest botanical garden, modeled after Singapore's Gardens by the Bay, is being developed in Lalbagh, Bengaluru. This project aims to create a cool, rainforest atmosphere, featuring over 250 rare plant species across an area of 2.5 acres. The development, costing approximately 50 lakh, will utilize German fine nozzle pipes to continuously spray fine water droplets, simulating a misty environment. The garden will feature diverse plants like orchids, lilies, ferns, philodendrons, and alocasia, sourced from various countries including Karnataka, Kerala, Odisha, Himachal Pradesh, China, and Japan.
