Yes, it is...this species seems very different than most of the other species of Tabebuia...as it appears to stay pretty much evergreen and the flowers are pastel pink.

Exactly - this is the one that the council uses for footpath planting probably because it is evergreen.

Yes, it appears to be a very clean tree. Unfortunately, I don't see a lot of these trees planted here in San Diego. I'm not sure the reason why...because they are such beautiful, nicely-shaped trees. They seem to be very dought tolerant also -- which is an huge advantage here.
