Hi everyone. I've been looking for the Savage Garden all over KL and couldnt find it anywhere. The only place i havent look is at Kinokuniya KLCC. Dont want to go there and be disappointed.  Anyone else know what other useful CP books i can get and where? That focuses more on vft and sundews.. Thanks. |

Have you looked for it at Borders ? We saw a copy there at the PJ outlet, the one in The Curve. i`ll be at KLCC today, if I have the time, I`ll check at Kinokuniya to see if they have it there. I`ll sms you if I see it. Ok x ?
So far, I ONLY use Savage Garden for all my references but if you are more into Neps like David, then you`ll probably need other books.

I think for VFT and Sundews, so far I've not seen any other books besides The Savage Garden. have you tried the MPH bookstore in 1-Utama? Perhaps you can call them up first and ask. YOu can find nepenthes books there.

If no one else has it Borders will, if they dont you could try asking them to source one for you.

where did you go to look for it Ding ? we have seen it before in MPH Mid-Valley, Borders Berjaya & Curve & also very recently I bought a copy of it from Kinokuniya for Ezrena..... how often do you come to KL ? perhaps i could try to look out for you in KLCC if that`s convenient. i`m not sure if i can meet up with you tho. Btw, when i bought it 3 weeks ago the price was rm98.24........

Yes, but it`s the most comprehensive book around on overall CPs. All of us who own one would swear by it for guidance on CP care......quite detailed & informative. I bought mine for rm70 3 years ago. The price has gone up since.

I second what tarence just said. That is "THE" book to get if you want a comprehensive book on CPs. It is also written for laymen like us who does not want to be bog down with scientific terms etc.

I used to read it before sleeping at nite & dream of CPs when I first got it. Shy to admit. Heheh.

hi tarence. last time i was going to Kinokuniya at KLCC searching for the book but failed to get it. Bifurcatum, for the CP books you can surf the website of natural history publication from sabah. it offers a lot of CP books. there has nepenthes of penisular malaysia, nepenthes of sabah and nepenthes of sarawak. each are sold for RM 20 each. if you were a student, just request them to give you a discount. you can pay through bank transfer to them. you have to pay the postage fee too.

Ding : how often do you come to KL ? do you want me to try & get it for you ? I managed to get a copy for mukaketupat about a month ago thereabouts.....but if it`s too inconvenient to meet up, then better not.

hi tarence, thanks for your kindness. however i just want to see how is the book looks like and don't intend to buy it for the price is quite expansive. how often i will be in kl? i can say very seldom. i'm just having my final holiday now before going to work in singapore. here i want to inform you that i'll be in kl tomorrow for i will be taking bus at night to machang before going to see the n. benstonei in bukit bakar.
