At Singapore the orchid garden
includes a lagoon with some swans and ducks gliding on the water
and a waterfall where it is possible to walk behind the water
wall. The great overall landscaping give the feeling to be in a
tropical jungle with huge trees, enormous tree ferns and a
abundant flora in general, just like in the movie. Real
beautiful orchid arrangements, among others red vanda, are set over the whole area
interrupting the green sea with hundreds of different color.
Various types of orchid are around,
dendrobium, vanda, cattleya, mokara, dyakia,
phalaenopsis,
oncidium,
Paphiopedilum
and various others. Since orchids
are the largest family of plants with more than 20.000 variants
plus uncountable hybrids there is really something to
see.
Hybrids are the type of flowers usually seen in an orchid
garden or orchid nursery, actually there is no real difference
between species and hybrids.
There are white orchids, blue,
yellow plants, green, in purple, red and other color combination like
white and purple (dendrobium), white and red (cattleya), yellow
and brown speckled plus plus. It's like walking in a rainbow all
imaginable orchid types are there.
Naturally some business is
integrated, cut flower are for sale, beautiful orchid
bouquets and various seedlings to take away. Its a great
place for everyone, not only a feast for the eyes but
also a tranquil retreat to relax and enjoy the pretty
flowers, including red dendrobium, gorgeous vanda
orchids and the large cattleyas.
Other tropical plants are
grown in between such as lilies and hibiscus. At Kuala
Lumpur is a dedicated area as hibiscus garden.
