Sentosa Flower Show Part 9 - Tulips

Image
Land of the giant tulips. Actually these are just props but there are really some tulips growing there. Rather, these tulips are specially flown in from other countries and placed there for the Sentosa Flower Show. We cant grow tulips in Singapore because of the hot weather but soon we can see tulips growing in Singapore.

Garden by the Bay in Marina will be open end of this year and certain parts of the garden will see tulips growing there. There will be special domes with temperature suitable to grow flowers that normally cannot grow in Singapore. I will tell you more when I visit the garden when it open by end of the year. There will be four parts of the garden, I think they will open certain parts phase by phase.

Image
I was late visiting the flower show where the tulips bloom too much.

Image
Besides Carrots, there are also other vegetables planted in carrotland. These are not planted in sentosa but purposely flown in from other countries and plant there for the flower show to celebrate the year of the rabbit.

Image
The vegetables remind one of Salad. Salad anyone?

My World Tuesday - Sentosa Flower Show Part 7 - Carrotland

Image
Finally, I found my way to Carrot Land, although I was in Giantland...lol. These carrots are real huge and tall but they are actually props.
Image
I love eating carrots especially if they are soft boiled, very healthy and yummy.
Image

Image
These are real carrots and specially flown in from other countries for the flower show in sentosa. On normal days, you wont get to see these carrots but not sure after the flower show, if these carrots are still there.
Image

Image
Different types of carrots planted in the plot. In mandarin, carrots and raddish are known as red and white carrots.
Image
Very interesting to see these carrots and raddish.

Sentosa Flower Show Part 6- Heritage Tree

Besides viewing the flower show, there are many other things to see on Sentosa Island. As I was walking towards Carrot Land, I saw many heritage trees but did not take photo of them all. Some are just too tall.

Trail to carrot land (coming up in another post.)
Image

Image
A wishing tree for the Year of the rabbit.
Image
A strange dragon fountain sitting quietly at a corner as I walked past it.
Image

Image
A flower in bloom

It looked like a kind of trumpet flower but am not sure.
