    Normally now they don't carry. See some of it at C328 and polyart before but not common.
    I got mine from colourful and polyart previously.

    You can try East Ocean@Havelock, I got most of my Rotala SP & Green from there. Or order online from Mizuworld, altho theirs is emmersed form.

    Else advertise in WTB thread, many bros here giving them for free after trimming.

    Yes did try the WTB not once but twice still no response. Maybe will give it another try. Btw where is East Ocean?. Look up AQ lfs directory but not listed there.

    These are my rotala, but don't know if they are rotala sp, green or. Think the 2nd one is rotala sp and last one is rotala green. There are some pink/red ones, don't know if they are also rotala.

    Will be good if some experts help to identify them.

    From the pics i can only rule the 3rd one out. I think it is a Ludwiga ....... . I have that plant as well. I am interested in the rest. If possible like to have a combination of the rest. SMS me the $ and location to collect. My contact 9eight780I08. No hurry as you could be busy with the New Year around the corner. Gong Xi Fa Cai

    Hi Bro Octopus

    You can try Ah Pek located at Pasir Ris farmway3. They do have most the plants you are looking for.

    Sorry I do not remember the exact name of this farm but It's opposite OTF along Pasir Ris farmway3

    Yes actually visited the farm on 2 occassions and dont look like they cater to walk in customers. No display of plants except for riccia in a algae covered tank. The place is so deserted there were no other customer beside me and uncle and auntie so preoccupied with their work. Want to ask also paiseh.

    Hi Bro

    The Uncle is very friendly, i normally just grab a small basket and proceed to choose the plants from the small ponds around.

    On the other hand you can always ask him for help. He do entertain walk in customers.

    Thanks for the encouragement. Maybe will pay another visit and do what you did. Carry a basket and pick some plants from the ponds.
