In this episode, I team up with Leslie from @blacksun.botanist at a little known greenhouse area called Seletar West Farmway 9 - where a community of plant lovers set up their nurseries and shops to grow plants they love! Singapore is a tiny island with mostly dense and urban residential and commercial zones with mostly high-rise buildings. This poses a challenge to passionate collectors and small business owners. Hence, there was a need to build these communities to sustain growth and cultivation!
At @blacksun.botanist, we tour his fascinating collection, including large aroids, variegated plants, interesting aglaonemas, and tons of jungle plants from Southeast asia. I discovered so many new species in this tour, and I bet you will too. Leslie generously shared his green house care tips as well as his propagation projects.
This is a good start as we explore more collectors in Singapore in the upcoming episodes.
