It is not a good idea to place a exotic plants inside our jungle. There will cause a lot of problems in our ecosystem.

You are right Lim, if that ventrata flowered and cross with other native neps and 10-20 yrs down the road, we might not be able to find the local pure strain neps anymore... We all know how hardy x ventrata is.... it'll be a lost for our local ecology

Simon,
Thanks for sharing those great shots... we need more people like you and Robert to go out in the field to document those marvelous plants. Good job !!

Quite sad to see this. So, don't simply release any exotic animal or plants.
