Can't go to Gardens by the Bay? They come to you lor!

Being stuck indoors during this CB period makes it rather hard to get up close and personal with nature.

That's why Gardens by the Bay launched its Stay Home With GB initiative where a team of horticulturists bring nature to you through videos, advice columns and other online resources.

Here are some highlights that might interest you:

1. Want to build your own terrarium?
