The Spring Festival is the liveliest festival in Singapore. Two weeks before the New Year’s Eve, flower shops along the roads will have lights on and sell flowers all night. There are two kinds of flowers sold in Singapore: potted flower and cut-flower. One of the potted flowers is the national flower of Singapore - orchid.
