Hi all,
Is anyone attending the above?
For those of you who are confirmed coming to Singapore for 20th World Orchid Conference, Spider Orchid LLP welcomes you to our tiny little island state! The last time the World Orchid Conference was held in Singapore was in 1963 when Singapore was not independant yet and we were still part of Malaysia! Anyways, Spider Orchid LLP is a provider of educational tours and workshops with themes centering on natural heritage, history and art in Singapore. We are very interested in raising the awareness of the history of orchids in Singapore, plus some of the very interesting stories behind some of the personalities and beautiful orchids of Singapore.The founders of Spider Orchid were orignally based in the world famous Mandai Orchid Garden in Singapore - unfortunately, the Mandai Orchid Garden is closed now. We have so much archival information, etc about that historic Garden ... but sadly, it is closed because the land lease has expired and the Singapore government has other plans for the land. Mandai Orchid Garden was just conveniently next to the Singapore Zoological Garden - which is another must-visit place, as our Zoo is an open concept zoo.
Please visit our website at www.spiderorchid.com.sg or write an email to me at alice@spiderorchid.com.sg if you need more information.
Best wishes,
Alice Mendoza
