Eureka! It's a Dipteris!  
The native tiger and symbolic lion stood out strongly from the rest like kings
in their own rights. But of the unassuming pair of leafy branches bent at will
at their feet and seemingly eluding second glances, it is Eureka for me.

It is the unmistakable twin leaf-blades of the Dipteris frond! Yes... that must
be it, and I wouldn't be swayed! Ha Ha!

O' glorious sentinels of Temasek
Stood by the thousands on the sea cliffs of old
- You will not be forgotten.
