Tulipmania at Gardens by the Bay 2023

Tulips are finally back at Gardens by the bay, flower dome! It was last featured in October 2021. This Friday, my friend and I went to see the launch of Tulips theme at flower dome. I went back this Saturday just for the tulip dome lighting craft activity and to check the growth of the tulips.

This year, the theme is on the origin of tulips which is native to Turkey, now known as Türkiye.

It features hot air balloons over Cappadocia region in Central Antolia, Turkiye. Turkish culture, art ceramics and architecture like the Galata Tower.

I will be back to see the beautiful and colourful tulips again as some flowers haven't bloom yet. Hopefully by next week they will all bloom.

First time seeing this unique crown-shaped tulips. It is known as the Crown or coronet tulips. Some examples of crown tulips include  ‘Striped Crown’, ‘Red Dress’, and ‘Yellow Crown’ tulips.

These tulips look like lilies thus they are known as lily-flowered tulips. They are identified by their slender flowers and outward-pointing petals like the red 'Pretty woman' tulips.

I like this unique looking Brisbane tulips.

About Tulips ( From Gardens by the Bay website here)

The name “Tulip” was derived from the shape of the flower that resembled the turban (dulbend or tülband) of Sultans of the Ottoman Empire, now known as Türkiye. Tulips come in a wide variety of vivid colours, with each colour signifying a different meaning.
