Photos of some flowers on display in the Flower Dome, in the Gardens by the Bay. These flowers are commonly associated with the Chinese New Year.

"Commonly known as the plumed cockscomb or feather cockscomb, Celosia argentea is known for its very bright colours. This ornamental plant has edible flowers and leaves, which are consumed in some parts of Africa and Southeast Asia." - From a sign at the display

Feverfew - a flowering plant in the daisy family.
"Cymbidium, Commonly known as boat orchid, is a festive favourite due to its large and vibrant blooms that signify fertility and abundance." - From a sign at the display

"One of the first Oncidium hybrids created by the Singapore Botanic Gardens is Oncidesa Goldiana 'Golden Shower'. The vibrant golden yellow flowers of this beautiful hybrid are marked with brown stripes and dots, reminiscent of a tiger’s coat pattern. It blooms readily and profusely, making it a favourite plant in homes for the Lunar New Year festivities." - 👉 Source
