A living map of Nairobi's jacaranda season. Named in tribute to the
#JacarandaPropaganda hashtag that the city's people already
share each October, and in quiet protest against the disappearance of the
trees that inspired it.
Pin the trees you walk past. Update the ones others have pinned.
The map reflects the city's bloom in real time.
No accounts. No notifications. No feeds, no likes, no streaks.
Your photos and pins belong to the civic record, not to any platform.
Each October the map fills up again; each November it quiets.
Dormancy is part of the rhythm the trees themselves keep.
