Chinese New Year is just around the corner. That means there is a new Floral display at Flower Dome. This year the theme is Dahlia Dreams Floral Display, where the Dahlias from Mexico will co-mingle with Chinese tradition to bring you a whole new Chinese New Year flavour at the Flower Dome.
Freezing Cold
Stepping into the Flower Dome, you will be greeted by a display of Dahlia and monkeys as a back drop. Bewarned, we were there on a bright sunny day and it is freezing cold!


Step close and as your eye wonder on the flower bed, you would realised that there is a distinct lack of red in the gardens. Rather, the main flower bed is transformed into a valley of green that is homeland to Monkeys. Quite appropriate , given that we are in the year of the Monkey.

Here are 6 highlights of Dahlia Dreams Floral Display @ Flower Dome

Right in the middle of the Flower Bed is a walk through cave. Looking out at the opening and you probably would think you are transported to some mystical icy forest.
