The Carnival of Flowers – II

More photos and information on the ‘The Carnival Flower’ display. At the display, there are signboards with information on the display. Visitors get enjoy the lovely displays with an understanding of the theme, or background behind the display.
Kangaroos

With large feet, muscular tails, and perky ears, kangaroos epitomise the Australian outback, thriving in its harsh conditions. Fun fact: there are more than twice as many kangaroos as people in the Land Down Under. Their signature hop sets them apart from other large mammals, but kangaroos can also swim. And since they can’t hop backwards, their spot on the Australian Coat of Arms symbolises a nation always moving forward. The information is from one of the signboards at the display.

Inspired by the iconic Grand Central Floral Parade, Carnival of Flowers features five of our very own flora floats: the charming red tractor, a wheelbarrow overflowing with produce from the farmer’s market, life-size kangaroos, a whimsical Ferris wheel, and a rotating merry-go round with floral ponies and cows.
Aboriginal Australian Art
The Queenslander is an iconic Australian architectural design originating in the mid 19th century. Sporting wide verandahs, high ceilings, and decorative timber touches, Queenslander houses are elevated on stumps to conquer uneven terrain and flooding. This design also facilitates airflow beneath the house, while verandahs provide extra shade, keeping things breezy during Queensland’s hot, humid summers.
