Designed by artist James Doran-Webb, the Wood Dragon is a 5.5-metre-tall driftwood sculpture named ‘The Bearer of Infinite Blessings’.
The sculpture spans an amazing 15 metres, overlooking the various dahlias on display, noted GBTB on its Dahlia Dreams 2024 webpage.
It reportedly took 9,000 hours to make with recycled stainless steel and hardwood from the Vitex parviflora or smallflower chastetree at the Flower Dome.
The Dahlia Dreams display, which opens from 9am to 9pm daily, will last until 25 Feb 2024.
