    you only have teo's farm in the west to content with... oriental is not open to walk-ins.. It is there where you get the MOST choice of small plants...

    Nana petite costs at 'standard' price costs 12 singapore dollars per pot. which works out to more than 20 ringgit per pot in malaysia. It could be cheaper or more expensive.

    Nanas generally are more expensive.

    Nana Petite is around RM50 per pot in Malaysia. Guest a shopping trip to Teo's is called for. Do you have the address?

    I would like to add that price discussion isn't really encouraged. Prices can go up or down, depending on season, supply, purchase volume, individual buyer experiences.... what is quoted here may not be the price you actually get, so it's best to approach the dealer/farm/lfs directly.

    How to get to Teo farm: http://www.aquaticquotient.com/forum...ght=plant+farm

    There's one TIBS bus which goes along Lim Chu Kang road (from Chua Chu Kang I believe) and you have to alight near the entrance to Lane 8 and walk in (10 minutes).

    Before going to Teo's farm, 2 things you need to do :
    1. call before you go down, to enquire whether they stock your plants.
    2. KNOW the price of the plant that you want to get.

    I called before I went to get the plants I wanted..
    the only problem was that I wasn't too sure about the price.. so when i compared it with the LFS.. I was not terrible thrilled that I have to drive 6000 miles into the middle of nowhere and paid more for it.

    I think with abit of a bargaining... it would have a win-win solution for me...

    anyway.. the great news is.. the plants from there are EXCELLENT condition.. (then again, so are some of the LFS) and also.. they are ready to give you advise.

    Good luck!

    They actually have a website at www.teoaquaticplants.com with contact details and instructions on how to get there....

    opening hours? I think it's every day (save CNY) from 8-9 am until about 6+.
