Since 1859, Orchids have been closely associated with the Singapore Botanic Gardens.The products of the Gardens 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 2100 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 the diversity,richness and beauty, The National Orchid garden now offers a permanent showcase, the largest display of orchids in the world.
