The National Orchid Garden

The National Orchid Garden in Singapore

Perhaps it is the balmy atmosphere of a secluded tropical garden... or the splendour of the sweeping florascape... or the wide spectrum of every orchid hue... whatever is personally enchanting, you will come to find it at the National Orchid Garden. A myriad of orchid blooms meets the eye here: stunning or stubtle, patterned or unadorned, intricate or simple.
Since 1859, orchids have been closely associated with the Singapore Botanic Gardens. The products of the Garden's orchid breeding programme, which began in 1928, deserve a place where they can be displayed in their full splendour. The very design of these orchids are, one could say, 'hand-crafted' by the Gardens' horticultural staff, dedicated to bringing out the finest in any hybrid cross.
Over 700 species and 2,100 hybrids are now found in the Gardens' collection, and every year, more vibrant and enduring hybrids will be added on. So that all may admire and enjoy their diversity, richness and beauty, the National Orchid Garden now offers a permanent showcase, the largest display of orchids in the world.
