Bukit Tinggi Nursery

<span style="font-size: 85%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">It was a cloudy day when I arrived at Bukit Tinggi Nursery one afternoon. The skies were gloomy but the colourful plants that were arranged facing the road made the nursery so bright and beautiful.<br /> <br /> My excitement was heightened and I was really looking forward to what I would find as I set foot in the nursery. And sure enough, I was not disappointed...<br /> <br /> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggsVb1xvqa3QUrjk0DjNfB-AQjrXBXysJMEdj3oQXcSNiA9vDoVS3Fs6WPqAUTTGtxo-wRmyWq1hXvWTBM1Mr5bJg4g_9zbUnechGPPYPV_ggkXsMohxcB4PPsOXv0u1ksoT4MeVAy_H8/s1600/IMG_2896+(copy).jpg"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggsVb1xvqa3QUrjk0DjNfB-AQjrXBXysJMEdj3oQXcSNiA9vDoVS3Fs6WPqAUTTGtxo-wRmyWq1hXvWTBM1Mr5bJg4g_9zbUnechGPPYPV_ggkXsMohxcB4PPsOXv0u1ksoT4MeVAy_H8/s320/IMG_2896+(copy).jpg" width="320" /></a><br /> <br /> <span class="fullpost">Right at the entrance, on a bridge, was a row of pleasing vertical greeneries. The panels were filled with small potted plants in a few different colours and textures.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGdSmHhvReayBljMVrIgn64E0W-xgIKRYDcx5CeYxD_Kv88Ja_DYxJhJvWjySj9LFZPdeJQZZaKvvHulKGhrlxctrLoaYPLEWOMnOO7NKuCrtnVvQyimZOMKqpjpvAmV1AZSBwIxCNcuI/s1600/IMG_2897+(copy).jpg"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGdSmHhvReayBljMVrIgn64E0W-xgIKRYDcx5CeYxD_Kv88Ja_DYxJhJvWjySj9LFZPdeJQZZaKvvHulKGhrlxctrLoaYPLEWOMnOO7NKuCrtnVvQyimZOMKqpjpvAmV1AZSBwIxCNcuI/s320/IMG_2897+(copy).jpg" width="320" /></a><br /> <br /> I was greeted by the owner, Mr Lim Seng Kit shortly after I entered the nursery. Our conversation got a little interesting when he pointed out to me several plants placed on a rack that he was told were lavenders. Besides that he also showed me a magazine that has a pic of a lavender which looks different than the ones in his nursery. He didn't think that they were rightly identified. And you know what, he was right as later when I got home, I found out that only one of the plants was in fact a lavender... possibly a variety of Lavandula angustifolia.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgocf03q-1JVGW40K1QcsiLfIkXs-t907jSB1iDpNQkkpQZ99J6BXhHIN-1_CxlFJN9rFI-MK3BjxPVWp26x61GHpP4gno_RrsL6vNwH89mupvjy9bYJ_p4CFKkQVCPFTPg9UayJ2d1Hsw/s1600/IMG_2967+(copy).jpg"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgocf03q-1JVGW40K1QcsiLfIkXs-t907jSB1iDpNQkkpQZ99J6BXhHIN-1_CxlFJN9rFI-MK3BjxPVWp26x61GHpP4gno_RrsL6vNwH89mupvjy9bYJ_p4CFKkQVCPFTPg9UayJ2d1Hsw/s320/IMG_2967+(copy).jpg" width="320" /></a><br /> <br /> He also gladly shared with me his collection of precious books and catalogues on plants and plant care that he brought back from countries that he has visited over the years. I also discovered that he is someone who finds rare plants fascinating. As he flipped through the pages of the books, he highlighted some plants that he has not seen before. I was fascinated as well :-)<br /> <br /> The other thing that amazed me was that he has also been to Pyin Oo Lwin, a place in Myanmar that was so memorable to me too!
