Rhodosendron Radiance - Gardens By The Bay

Gardens by the bay have a new set of flora display in October. It is called Rhodosendron Radiance.

Flowers that are bundled or bunched together. Th exhibition lasts for a month. Probably these flowers are temperate.

Typically, most of the flowers that I have seen a grown individually. These species is different. Looks like many flowers are from the same stalk. In other words, it seems to derive from the Rudy version of the flower in short called Rubicon.

The entrance is filled with various colors of the flowers.

Resident bears contest is available. You need to take the QR codes in the exhibition to enter into a lucky draw.

This set of flowers appears to be dying as the exhibition opens. One can notice the drooping of the flowers including single  stigmas without petals.

From the top of the entrance, one can see a cable car prop where a couple of bears is coming down from the

A outlook post.

there are small pictures of bears around the exhibition.  This is playful Prisca. Smart Trader.

Each color of these flowers have a nickname. The white version is called Lucy Lou.

The exhibition area is always at the basement of the Flower Dome. This is where the flowers are changed every couple of months.

There is a winne the pooh bear with piglet. I am not sure if it is part of the permanent attraction.

The new flowers are beyond the flora divider. Crowded with people.
