Singapore Garden Festival



Visited the Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay, soo crowded! It's $12 per Singaporean adult on a weekday.


Right at the entrance are these shophouses filled with orchids like the real houses of old. OK, so its usually like 1 pot of orchids but this looks soo much better.


The walking paths are filled with these powder puffs of orchids, soo cute!


This new breed of orchids really caught my attention, its like Tron with petals that resemble computer chips.


Newer versions of prize winning orchids resembling garlands, so you don't have to bunch blooms to make a wreath, you can just use 1 branch by 1 branch.


These lantern flowers are too gorgeous, this time I took pics of the ombre purple/hot pink ones.


Pointy star vine leaves, amazing find if you see this in the wilderness. Leaves with unusual shapes are really ornamental, these look like shurikens.


Completely black pansies, I wonder why we don't see more pure black flowers around.


Giant flowering plants. This entire section has grass level flowering plants.


Mega Dahlia, think this is the biggest I've seen so far.


Full Zinnias, looks like this is going to be my new screensaver.


Just as we stepped out of the Flower Dome, we saw the walkway covered in bright orange blooms, don't know what its called.


That's an actual human size comparison, so you know how big these are.


Stopped for a souvenir but got a white rose milk ice cream instead. Other ice cream flavors include fruit, milo, chocolate, orchid vanilla etc.
