Singapore bought over TROPIFLORA??

I was referred to a page in Tropiflora’s website that Singapore bought over Tropiflora’s bromeliad collection for the upcoming Gardens by the Bay project:

The news have been circulating for quite some time and many of us, bromeliad lovers, thought it’s the end of world knowing because one of our favourite mail order nurseries is going to cease its operations.

The good news is, this is not going to happen, as declared on Tropiflora’s website:

While the contents of this article are accurate, it tends to have the readers believe Tropiflora is ceasing operation. THIS IS NOT THE CASE.  Tropiflora intends to remain open providing products and services to its customers for years to come.  We thank you for your business and will continue to serve you!

Below are some pictures GCS members took with the owners and staff of Tropiflora during the Singapore Garden Festival:
