Pictures From The Flower Dome

At 1.2 hectares, the Flower Dome at the Gardens by the Bay is the largest glass greenhouse in the world, as listed in the 2015 Guinness World Records. In here, it is perpetual Spring.

The Flower Dome features a the flower field, and eight other gardens, namely The Baobabs, Succulent Garden, Australian Garden, South African Garden, South American Garden, Olive Grove, California Garden and the Mediterranean Garden. These eight gardens exhibit exotic flowers and plants from the Mediterranean and semi-arid regions from five different continents.

Here are some pictures from the dome. I could be posting everyday for a year, and not be done with posting about the dome. But you will be very bored by the end of it. Spectacular and innovative, the Dome needs to be personally experienced, to be fully appreciated. If you ever made your way to Singapore, a visit to the Gardens by the Bay, to the domes is a MUST!

Beautiful Dahlias

Topiary - this art of training the plants fascinates me.
A flower I haven't gotten around to find out the name of. If you know of it, do drop the name in the comment.
Wood carvings, or wood sculptures. Almost missed the owl in front of the tree.
A tree lizard?
Some sculptures allegedly donated by the Singapore Airlines. It features a family travelling.
More unknown flowers. Please drop their names in the comments if you know of them.
