More than 6,000 preserved plants across 40 species, carefully selected for their diverse colours and rich textures, bring Disney and Pixar characters to vivid life as colourful topiaries in Disney Garden of Wonder. The diverse botanical palette used includes sea holly, moss, baby’s breath, roses, and more. Another 30,000 live and preserved plants were used to craft the detailed surrounding landscapes.

The floral spectacle, which took 17,000 painstaking manhours to put together by hand, makes its Singapore debut, as Disney Garden of Wonder was launched at Gardens by the Bay’s Floral Fantasy. The show will run until 31 March 2025.

Organised in collaboration with Disney and supported by Singapore Tourism Board, Disney Garden of
Wonder sees Disney and Pixar characters such as Mickey Mouse and Friends, Snow White, Mike and
Sulley from Monsters, Inc., and more transformed into delightful horticultural displays.

For example, to create Ariel from The Little Mermaid’s trademark red locks, Amaranthus caudatus, known for its striking, cascading tendrils that mimic the flow of hair underwater, was used. Her tail was crafted with Ruscus hypoglossum, a plant chosen for its glossy, blue-green sheen that represents the scaly texture of a mermaid’s tail.

Meanwhile, her seashell top was made of blue-magenta hydrangeas, which lend a rich, textured appearance with their large, rounded flower clusters. The eight topiary sets of Disney Garden of Wonder, each spotlighting different characters, are:

● Mickey Mouse: this 3m-tall sculpture can be found welcoming visitors to Disney Garden of Wonder,
located outside Floral Fantasy
● Steamboat Willie
● Winnie the Pooh
● Snow White
● Ariel, Flounder and Sebastian from The Little Mermaid
● Mike and Sulley from Monsters, Inc.
● Carl Fredricksen, Russell, Dug and Kevin from Up
● Buzz Lightyear, Woody and the Aliens from Toy Story

Donald Duck meets Chilli Crab in a vibrant display at the Flavours of Singapore zone, celebrating local culinary delights with a Disney twist.

There is also a Flavours of Singapore zone, which celebrates Singapore’s culinary scene by playfully
reimagining Disney characters with local food delights in vibrant floral displays. Keep a look out for:

Gardens by the Bay Assistant CEO May Yeo said, “Many of us grew up with Disney and Pixar stories, and whether it is Mickey Mouse, Snow White, or Buzz Lightyear and Woody, these beloved characters have established a place in our hearts.

This festive season, Gardens by the Bay is holding Disney Garden of Wonder in Singapore for the first time – where timeless characters are presented as colourful, charming topiaries in a stunning showcase that combines floral artistry with Disney magic. The intricate beauty of the topiaries, coupled with the familiarity of these fan-favourite characters, will appeal to both families and individuals across generations.”
