Singapore Botanic Garden - Celebrity Garden


Inside the Orchid Garden (admission fee of S$5 is required, S$1 students, senior citizens, free for children (below 12 years), is also the celebrity garden. The orchid species were specially breed and named after visiting royals and celebrities.

Princess Diana was supposed to visit Singapore but was not so cause of her sudden death. The orchid was specially breed and named after her for her visit.


Very famous South Korean Actor Bae Yong Jun had orchids named after him too.


Our very own famous local singer Stefanie Sun, the orchid really suit her.



There are more orchids named after celebrity and royals.

Singapore Botanic Garden - Beautiful Orchids

Really love taking photos of these orchids in Singapore Botanic Garden. They are really so beautiful and make me so cheerful.


This is our national flower. Vanda Miss Joaquim.


Dont really know the rest of the names of the orchids.









My favourite colour, purple. These orchids really have a place in my heart.



Looked like a girl dancing with her skirt swirling round and round.

Singapore Botanic Garden-National Orchid Gardens

This will be my last posting on Singapore Botanic Gardens. For more photos on plants, flowers and cactus, you can view them at my flower blog. I will post them there once I do some reseach on the names of the flowers, trees, etc. I am only an admirer of flowers and amazing trees so am not familiar with their names. :)

Admission to Singapore Botanic Garden is free but admission to its Orchid Garden is S$5.00. It is very worth the money cause there are so many beautiful and unique orchids in the garden.
There is also a VIP garden too where orchids are breed and named after VIP of other countries. I saw many VIP orchids but I failed to find those named after Princess Diana and First Lady of USA, Laura Bush, but I did snap the posters of their orchids. Will post them in my flower blog.



I am so delighted with the beautiful orchids. Their colours and their shapes are so eye catching.

I have yet to find out the names of the above orchids. I still have many photos of beautiful orchids but I have yet to sort them out.

It is a happy day for me at botanic garden. I took a lot of photos, spend quality time at the gardens and learn a lot about the orchids and the amazing trees and not forgetting about those sculptures and my close encounter with the swans. :)
