Hi! I love to plant our native plants and some of them are the halubagat, balinawnaw, and talbak. Can i ask where i can get the seedlings? Thanx in anticipation of your help.
Hello Vic, you can try asking in Philippine Native Tree Enthusiasts on Facebook. I was also able to get native trees from some nurseries in RBR Garden in Calamba Laguna. Look for Sheina Gasmen or Jonathan Pornilda. They have nurseries there. https://www.facebook.com/groups/philippinenativetreeenthusiasts/
