Babymoon - PART IIII

Singapore: The Conservatories

Time was and is still limited, since becoming a mum and going back to work this post has taken me weeks to finish even broken into bite-sized pieces, so without further ado, I now give you the final part to our pre-adoption babymoon adventure.

All prior parts have now paid out but you can still check them our below:

Part I: Clarke Quay

PART II: Marina Bay Sands

Part III: Singapore: Gardens by the Bay

The Conservatories

Like Super Tree Grove we discussed in Part III: Singapore: Gardens by the Bay, the two conservatories are found in the South Bay. They are hard to miss and can be seen from many vantage points around Singapore. Both domes are air-conditioned and sit at a reasonable 23-25 Celsius which makes a welcome change from the humidity outside.

There is a cost to entry for the two domes but nothing exorbitant, it's well worth the price and you can get passes out to return on the same day.

Flower Dome

The flower dome is the largest glass greenhouse and lives within a perpetual spring. The displays and themes change regularly even if the seasons don't.

I have a thing for plants that are hard to kill, so cactus's fall into one of my favourite plant types and the flower dome didn't disappoint, some may remember the woolly cactus (above left) from my What is it Contest.

I couldn't help myself, you are lucky I'm not posing with it... What do you ask? Keep your mind out of the garden, it just looks like a cactus... And maybe a penis... What I said garden, not gutter... haha...

There are many flowers within the dome but it was also the school holidays and the main displays were quite overcrowded so we avoided that section and found some pretty flowers that had all stages of life from birth to death that I had to snap and share with you.

One other thing that was all throughout the dome was these wooden carvings that were fantastic to see and more interesting to us than the flowers of the season. The dragon was huge and a fav of my hubby @shai-hulud, I loved the owl and the rabbits playing the fools.

Cloud Forrest

Cloud Forrest was by far the coolest of the two, not in temperature but due to the largest internal waterfall in the world which creates this magical feeling from the minute you enter the dome.

You not only get to see the waterfall but climb up the manmade testament to engineering and see it from above. The mist it creates helps water many of the plants and flowers that live within the dome.

It is home to many types of flowers including mini orchids and the famous carnivorous pitcher plants, many of these plants live on top of each other in nature and it is no different here, they have created flower walls as well as specialised gardens.

To add something extra for the school holidays they created a Lego flower display for us to enjoy featuring many of the carnivous flowers living within the dome.

Where there are flowers there are sure to be bugs, the famous red back, growing up in the country and living in a bus with an outhouse as the only toilet while the house and bathrooms got built, I got used to checking under the seat for these sneaky bitey buggers.

As always thanks for reading, here is a giant snail for some fun to end the post. I couldn't resist, I have a thing for snails and this is not the only image of being with a giant one. haha... Have a great weekend!
