This year, the Orchid Show is a tribute to Singapore. Singapore is also known as the “City in the Garden”. Since 1963, Singapore has been transformed into a place with lush greenery and a clean environment. This long term effort is to create a special place for its citizens. It is hoped that these changes will make life more pleasant for the inhabitants. Space has been set aside for greenery throughout the city. Including its housing developments, parking lots, roads, and other city areas. These initiatives have had a lasting legacy on the City in a Garden – Singapore.
Influenced by Singapore’s world known orchid culture, the Orchid Show celebrates the City in the Garden. New York Botanical Garden partnered with two groups in Singapore. The two groups are the Singapore Botanic Gardens and Garden by the Bay in Singapore. The landmark Enid A Haupt Conservatory will be the sight of thousands of orchids. These orchids will honor Singapore’s rich legacy of innovative garden design, floral displays, and orchid cultivation.
Winter hours are 10 am to 5 pm through Sunday, March 3, 2019. Typically, hours are 10 am to 6 pm during the Spring and Summer seasons.
