Inscribed
as the first and only Tropical Botanic Garden on UNESCO's World Heritage list,
the Singapore Botanic Gardens is home to a rich variety of tropical trees,
shrubs and vines. We shall explore primarily the Herb Garden and also the
edge of the Evolution Garden to look for a variety of butterfly species. Past
visits have yielded sightings of the Rustic, oft thought as a forest
species. But with the presence of its host plant in the garden, the
Rustic is fairly easily seen here. Other butterflies usually encountered
on good sunny days include Leopard, Plain Tiger, Cycad Blue, Common Palmfly,
Painted Jezebel, Ciliate Blue, Chocolate Pansy, Common Mormon. Less
common sightings are Common Rose, Common Birdwing, Tailed Jay, Hoary Palmer.
Meeting Time & Location
Meet at 9am at the Visitor Centre (Nassim Gate) in front of the Garden
Shop.
Things to Bring
Bring hat and water.
