Butterfly Watch Seasonality Survey

We joined Butterfly Watch programme organized by NParks to conduct butterfly watch seasonality survey at Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park.

The data collected are used to analyse the relation between their seasonal appearance with the plants, temperature, humidity, predators, parasites/ viruses, environmental changes and a host of other factors.

Endangered Native Plant Conservation Project

Dendrobium aloifolium is listed as a Critically Endangered species on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species.

We have introduced and planted Dendrobium aloifolium on our premises to help safeguard the species and support its propagation.

Planting of Kantong Semar, a Native Plant in PT TEC Indonesia

Recommended by Indonesia’s environmental authority, PT TEC Indonesia began planting Kantong Semar in 2016. Through propagation from two original mother-plant plots, the initiative has expanded to five plots.

Kantong Semar, also known as a tropical pitcher plant, belongs to the Nepenthes genus. Native to tropical environments, this carnivorous plant has specialised leaf tendrils that form pitcher-shaped traps to capture insects.
