This truly spectacular festival takes place in Singapore every two years and draws together award winning professional gardeners from every corner of the globe. These talented garden and floral designers are invited to compete at this exclusive and unique festival to show off their creations to the world and win some of the most prestigious awards in gardening today.
In July of last year gardeners from seventeen countries exhibited their quite extraordinary designs during the eight day extravaganza that took place in the Suntec International Convention & Exhibition Centre in Singapore. This was the third occasion that this superb festival had taken place in this delightful country and was deemed to be a huge success with over 30,000 visitors to the event.
Exhibitors from as far away as Canada and Grenada were attracted to the festival and with 31 masterpieces of garden engineering on show visitors marvelled at the creations that were on display. There were over a quarter of a million plants, both tropical and temperate, with well in excess of 65,000 cut flowers dotted around the exhibition centre.
The garden displays were simply out of this world with inspirational touches that any fervent gardener could easily adapt to their own gardens. Trade stands at the festival offered innovative gardening products and many new species of plants were introduced to the public during the festival.
Amongst these beautiful floral displays was the Wine Garden. This unique garden design offered visitors the opportunity of tasting a selection of new wines whilst they marvelled at the plants and floral displays all around them.
The exhibitors at the festival included people such as the British designer Claire Whitehouse whose garden design was astonishingly beautiful. She created a show garden at the Chelsea Flower show which won 15 medals earning her the invitation to take part in the Singapore Garden Festival.
The Australian Jim Fogarty won the Gold medal and the much desired award for Horticultural Excellence for his extraordinary design ‘Daintree’. This talented garden designer has been a regular at the Festival and has the reputation of being one of the most respected garden designers in the world. He has won awards at the Singapore Festival every time that he has been invited to compete there since its inauguration in 2006.
Visitors from all over the world enjoyed the eight day festival and came away with new ideas for their gardens along with some fantastic products that were launched during the festival. With so much on offer and so much to see including landscaped gardens, fantasy gardens, garden fiestas, the Singapore Orchid Show it was a truly floral window to the world.
This exquisite festival takes place in one of the most beautiful cities in the world where visitors are guaranteed a friendly reception from everyone that they meet during their stay in this tropical paradise.
It is certainly be an event to look forward to in 2012 when exhibitors will once again astound the public with their creations. It is definitely one of the most awaited festivals throughout the globe both for the exhibitors and the public alike.
