Bay South Garden is the largest of the gardens. Inspired by an orchid, the design resembles Singapore's national flower, Papilionanthe Miss Joaquim. These stunning man-made trees of up to can be found all around the Gardens, with 12 at the Supertree Grove. Measuring between 25 and 50 metres tall, Gardens by the Bay's Super trees are designed with large canopies that provide shade in the day and come alive with an exhilarating display of lights and sounds at night. Stand in awe amidst these iconic giants, or stroll along the 22-metre-high OCBC Skyway and enjoy panoramic vistas of the Gardens and the Marina Bay skyline.

Looks nice but disappointing to me. I like food gardens.
I was going to post one of these but they all look good and I don't want to watch any of them because tropical foods are frustrating since I can't grow and and can't even buy most of them especially "real" ones.
