in Singapore the national flower is the Vanda Miss Joaquim. which is named after the lady who bred that species of orchid. we have a beautiful orchid garden in our botanic garden as well, and there are so many new species and colourful types of orchids. i think one thing about orchids is that they can be bred amongst each other. and they are hardy too... can last very long.

Tha national flower of Malaysia is HIBISCUS. The national flower of Malaysia is the hibiscus, or bunga raya. The flower is found in abundance throughout the country, and for this very reason, was chosen to be the national flower (in 1960) by Malaysia's first Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman. There are many varieties of the hibiscus, but the five-petaled Hibiscus rosa sinensis was chosen above the others, as the most symbolically relevant. The five petals of the bunga raya symbolise the Rukunegara (the Five Principles of Nationhood), while the colour red represents courage.
