This post is for people looking for plants to decorate their garden, terrace or home.
The old airport closed in 2018 and is used for commercial activities and food stands. Sometimes small events are also hosted over there. We had dinner at the old airport a few weeks ago.
Last June (2024) they moved all the activities to the end of the runway. Give your tricycle driver the correct instructions to go to the new venue!
At this venue there are a few dozen merchants selling plants, flowers, fruit trees, pots, soil and more. Plenty of choice. You most likely will find what you need.
They will try to get the best buck possible, so you need to negotiate for your best price!
We love bougainvillea, and you’ll find plenty of them at the old airport. Prices vary from 200P to 250.000P. The expensive bougainvilleas are the special grafted ones. The ones we bought were between 1000P and 1400P.
Pots are cheap! The small ones were only 60P and the largest we bought were 300P each. They are cemented/painted pots.
You can pay cash and with G-Cash. We didn’t have transportation, so they arranged a tricycle for us.
