So far, the plants under the Secret Garden theme has been of the 'accent' type used in landscaping due to their architecturally distinctive features. Quite a number of those posted under this category are rarely seen elsewhere in Malaysia. And I agree!
Nevertheless, there are a couple which I have yet to identify due to missing tags. There are also similar species to earlier postings which I have taken liberty to omit due to duplication.
However, there are more species in the garden which are worth noting and their beauty unseen elsewhere with few exceptions.

Do make time to visit this exotic garden at leisure. Take time out to smell the herbs and the flowers. Where else can one get to go into a well planned and tended garden without admission fees? This is one advantage you'll not regret for taking...
What a great blog and excellent information.
