These are jungle plants bought from Sg buloh & also Camerons. The attraction is that the branches will divide & keep on dividing until it reaches a plantlet producing stage. The most rare one is the light green/ blue-ish one( 2nd single plant photo). I`m told that it is currently sold for rm500 in Camerons. Other places have never had stock of this. The pics are about a year ago, the plants have more than tripled the size & I have one more rare one to add to it, a squirrel tail-like lyco which is soft. That one is sold for rm800 at Camerons, I was told by a friend who went to Camerons last week.   |

Rm10 & rm8...thereabouts. I got them cheap from a roadside orang asli stall on the way down from Camerons. They obviously did not know what they were selling & I whisked the plants away before they could blink ! Heheh.

I`m game ! I go there at least once a year. My car can take 3 other folks. Hotels there are cheap, rm45 will get us a room with hot water & 1 single 1 double bed. Heheh....but the toll & gas is a bit costly. I estimate about rm150 for the whole trip....my gas is expensive coz i drive a 2litre engine 4WD....if we take the bus, it`ll be cheaper but once we reach Camerons, it`s difficult & very slow to move around.

Count me in when you guys plan the trip. Then we can also visit YG Park nursery and the mossy forest in Gunung Brinchang where we can spot Neps growing in the wild.

For searching of 'blue fern', if you're travel from muadzam shah. Pahang from gambang, Pahang...with luck you will get it from 'orang asli'.. also nephenthes, platycerium ridleyi and coronarium and the most wanted item by me - WILD ORCHIDS!
