I found a flea market or night market (pasar malam)
been set up by the street side as I was on my way to my mum's house after work.
The vendor had displayed some nice flowering plants. She sell mostly roses & desert roses.
She also sells fuchsia & strawberry plant!!
She sell a medium sized desert rose for $28 and a healthy looking strawberry plant in a hanging basket with strawberries for $10.
My heart went out for those Fuchsias for also $10 but they looked faded and burned out.
It so happen I didn't bring enough cash when I passed by there and managed to get this plant after a good bargain for $7
I took it and show to my mum and both of us got excited over it.
It look so much like a mix of pentas and lantana flower.
I really thought this one was a Star Cluster (Pentas Lanceolata) but found out later that this is actually a Verbena hybrid.
I also found that there is a strong history with this plant. (checked from wikipedia)
I gave few cuttings where the shoots had rooted and bid her luck in propagating this plant.
Planning to get those Fushias in my next visit to my mum's place.
