Singapore Gardeners’ Cup

Held in conjunction with the Singapore Garden Festival (SGF), the Singapore Gardeners’ Cup (SGC) is a collaborative and friendly competition for local community gardeners to celebrate the flourishing gardening culture in Singapore.

Community in Bloom (CIB) gardeners from 40 gardening groups have partnered the landscape industry to create five garden showcases, with the theme “Gardeners’ Fantasia” in 2022. Using a harmonious blend of horticulture and landscape design elements, the gardeners also incorporated environmental sustainability principles in their design by upcycling and repurposing commonly available materials.

The gardens were on display during the Singapore Garden Festival, which ended on 9 August 2022.

Check out their works below!

These serve solitary bees, such as leafcutter and resin bees, and demonstrate how horticultural waste can be used for habitat enhancement in gardens.
