What a spectacular day! Thanks so much for this adventure. Never heard of this place. It's good to broaden our perspective of this beautiful planet. Interesting, too, that Keri said Phalaenopsis orchid is the most intelligent plant, which led me to research briefly, to learn that orchids are smart because "of their ingenious ability to trick insects and people into helping with their pollination and transport". Also shocking to learn is that orchids, like cycads, are dinosaur-era plants. Superimpose that idea with the idea that the orchids are the most advanced form of plant life, while the most advanced form of animal life cannot manage to respect this beautiful home we share.

This is so beautiful with so many varieties of plants & all are so well taken care of and are thriving healthily. It puts the Flower Dome at Gardens by the Bay (S'pore) to shame as the latter relies heavily on the plant exhibits while the resident plants are not really thriving & there is less varieties of plants there.

Gardens by the bay is largely a tourist attraction with almost no effort to educate and conservation. Although it does a good job to get people closer to nature and attracts large volumes of people 😀

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. The discipline and commitment of the garden staff is admirable and clearly it pays off in how well the displays look and how they are also designed to be educational. While it may be too early to tell since the garden has only been open for 13 years, the director seems to have a long term vision for maintaining the quality for many decades to come. For institutions of this scale there needs to be serious long term planning, and China seems quite capable in that regard. Love that they also focus on getting younger people and children interested, as you say, it would be nice to have gotten into the world of plants from an earlier age. Final random thoughts: I loved the guide's "Cactus" hat. The spination on the large barrel cacti was a little "weak" but the smaller plants looked great and the labels/barcodes were a great touch. That euphorbia aeruginosa clump was gorgeous.

At 37.50 she was talking about 'shui shan', latin name: Metasequoia glyptostroboides, Chinese kanji: 水杉, English name: the dawn redwood. Together with Sequoia sempervirens (coast redwood) and Sequoiadendron giganteum (giant sequoia) of California, M. glyptostroboides is classified in the subfamily Sequoioideae of the family Cupressaceae. Although it is the only living species in its genus, three fossil species are known as well. It is the sole living species of the genus Metasequoia, one of three genera in the subfamily Sequoioideae of the family Cupressaceae. It now survives in the wild only in wet lower slopes and montane river and stream valleys in the border region of 3 Chinese provinces. Although the shortest of the redwoods, it can grow to 167 ft (51 m) in height.
