Singapore Botanic Gardens: Natural Gem in the Heart of Lion City
History of Singapore Botanic Gardens
Mr. Raffles’ vision became a reality with the establishment of Fort Canning’s first ‘Botanic and Experimental Garden’ in 1822. However, it wasn’t until 1859 that the Gardens found their current home, designed in the elegant style of England’s Landscape Movement, by a committee of agri-horticultural experts.
In 1928, the Singapore Botanic Gardens led the way when it came to breeding orchids, using the latest in vitro techniques to create hybridised plants. They kept up with the times and were a key part of the Garden City project, introducing plants of all kinds to the city.
