I'm not a great shopper as a rule unless I am in one of two kinds of shops - a book shop or a plant nursery and yesterday we found the latter.
I'd been wanting to go for a while as I've been wanting plants for projects that I want to do. But I haven't been sure where to go and my car has broken down. Yesterday, however, I got to borrow my friend's car, I was given vague directions to Sungei Buloh and off we went.
Two hours later, we finally arrived after discarding the directions and going the way I thought it was. And it was brilliant. A whole row of them. I was like a cat in the catnip patch! And the prices were all very reasonable. We spent just over RM100 all up and got a very full boot-load.
Here's some highlights:
1. Pithecelobium dulce, Variegated Madras Thorn
2. Heliconia flower
3. Anthurium (Anthurium andraeanum)
Flamingo Flower
4. Aeschynanthus radicans ‘Crispa’ (A. lobbianus)
All of them
Tropical gardening on your balcony. Many people live in high rises now and think that a garden on their balcony is just too much work or not worth it. This blog gives those who want a bit of green at their door ideas for layout, plants, pesticides, organics, seeds, pots, water features and much more.
