I did some garden visits last weekend but only now I managed to upload all the photos into photobucket. The first one is a collector's garden locate at one of the hills in Penang. I think it's about 680m above sea level amongst prime forest area. THe temperature is about the same as our lowland temperature except for a degree drop or two only. Not so high but it really does wonders to the plants!
Enough of talk. Here are some pics.
View of Penang looking from the top.
Nice truncata as we enter to his garden.
Plentiful of heliconias. I only manage to snap a few shots as most weren't flowering at that time.
Was told this is Hot Rio Night.
Some bromeliads.( My speciality

Aechmea fosteriana with Neo. Fireball
Alcantarea imperialis rubra.
