<span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:verdana;">On the way back, after a visit to the Paya Indah Wetlands recently, I stopped by D' Lakeside Garden Centre, a nursery that has been in Dengkil for the last 10 years.<br /><br />I was greeted on arrival by the owner, a friendly Malay lady, and her son. I was told that the nursery opens everyday from 9.00am to 7.00pm and closes for only four days for Hari Raya each year.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibUMki34fpc2JPcbuC07-qC3bZRQjGDzi_7KpwEExBcCPTpBsNSxDuUMuAsq1huKNj6kKmMdwNtl1fx_KJXCQqcGo_6PV9j9eOa3OY0pOwd1-0m2IJoSBju1-N0TohB4V7NnCq_T3BHmo/s1600-h/IMG_7786.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5389027525015466306" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibUMki34fpc2JPcbuC07-qC3bZRQjGDzi_7KpwEExBcCPTpBsNSxDuUMuAsq1huKNj6kKmMdwNtl1fx_KJXCQqcGo_6PV9j9eOa3OY0pOwd1-0m2IJoSBju1-N0TohB4V7NnCq_T3BHmo/s320/IMG_7786.JPG" style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 260px;" /></a><br /><br /><span class="fullpost">The helpful owner attended to me most of the time when I was there browsing the plants.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBq9H9WT9dAIC-e5TkOo71rL-Ja42mFgdqYOhPswIssc7hBWqD1M8fRnhU7y6MUnjEoRNkXqjy1UTWO70-Rj381Vv-krrb7I5PyDPoqhgBZERFywnqs6N5pCsS_ddFkXyVmfM-2_pXQyM/s1600-h/IMG_7827.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5389048990908771250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBq9H9WT9dAIC-e5TkOo71rL-Ja42mFgdqYOhPswIssc7hBWqD1M8fRnhU7y6MUnjEoRNkXqjy1UTWO70-Rj381Vv-krrb7I5PyDPoqhgBZERFywnqs6N5pCsS_ddFkXyVmfM-2_pXQyM/s320/IMG_7827.JPG" style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 230px;" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Plant Variety Rating: 3 </span>| There are more than 50 types of plants that can be found in this nursery.
