Flower Dome celebrates the Lunar New Year with a flower display called - ‘Dahlia Dreams’. This year, there is a ‘grand centrepiece – a close to 7m-tall dragon that stretches over 15m in length, rising majestically amidst more than a thousand dahlias of varied shapes, sizes and colours.
The floral display also features a scene that interprets the Chinese saying 鱼跃龙门, which translates into “carps leap over the dragon gate”, a metaphor for courage and the pursuit of greatness. At the entrance, a towering dragon sculpture made out of hardwood and recycled steel, a creation of British-born sculptor James Doran-Webb. Entitled "The Bearer of Infinite Blessings", this five-toed dragon holding the jewel of life in its arms, celebrates growth, progress and abundance.In Chinese culture, the dragon is a revered mythical creature symbolising imperial power, authority, and divine qualities.
