Mr Ang Siew Min, Senior Vice President of Airport Operations Development of Changi Airport Group, says that they are thrilled to unveil the sunflower display, which is an extension of the Sunflower Garden at Terminal 2.
“The sunflower, a symbol of joy and cheerfulness, perfectly aligns with our service philosophy of delivering delightful and positively surprising experiences to all visitors,” he said.
Highlights of the sunflower showcase
Visitors should keep their eyes peeled for the five-metre-tall rotating sunflower topiary structure at Terminal 2’s departure hall.

The rotating display also features numerous flowers beneath it, making it a great photo spot.
Terminal 3, however, boasts an even larger sunflower sculpture measuring eight metres tall.

Apart from the classic bright yellow sunflowers, the display features lesser-seen varieties such as the delicate pastel pink ‘Strawberry Blonde’ and the red and yellow ‘Florenza’.
All 5,000 sunflowers on display have been grown in Changi Airport’s plant nursery.
