Hi,

If not mistaken, the plant circled on the bottom left is emersed Lobelia Cardinalis. The other three circled plant on the right is a marginal plant (bog plant) which have their roots and lowest stalks wet most of the time, their leaves and flowers are held above the water. I think it is Alternanthera Bettzickiana 'Green’ (see here here and here and here), PlantGeek website said it is non aquatic. I have bought and tried to plant this plant a long time ago, it melted away afer 2 months...hehehehe...

Oh yeah, I have seen the plant list from the plant supplier of EA, 88..not sure if his name is Ah Keong because I call him 'tauke' hehehe...(a nice guy, saw the farm visit pictures from the MAC forum), his plant list is a complete list with plant code, plant scientific names, only that when he delivers his plants to the shop, he is using the plant code only, the shop don't even bother to get the actual plant names from him...not willing to take one step further to label the plant with the correct names so that at the same time educating the customers about plants and its names...woaaaa sorry..it is 2.45 am..



Regards
