106 Mindanao Avenue, Barangay Talipapa , Novaliches, Quezon City, Philippines
Mindanao Avenue Garden Center
It was several months ago (around December 2013) , When i noticed some plant stalls that have sprung-up along Mindanao Avenue near the Barangay Talipapa, Novaliches -Quezon City .
GVM Lucky Stone
GVM Lucky Stone had 2 branches ( Novaliches and Lagro)
Block 167 lot 23, Commonwealth Avenue Extension, Greater Lagro , Quezon City
Land line : 409-1260
rocks , stones, and garden accessories
Address: Quezon Avenue corner Agham road Bagong Pag-Asa, Quezon City
Landline: 494-76-38 Telefax : 436-53-28
Cellphone ( 0905-422-6966)
The area used to be a vacant lot being rented out to a trucking company . I noticed the beehive of activities started late December 2013 and early January 2014 when i saw some trucks load of plants and gardening materials that were busy unloading their stuffs.

clay pots
When i visited the old Manila Seedling Bank Foundation last December 2013. Some tenants told me that they they are looking for a place and they are still in negotiation with the lot owner in Mindanao Avenue , where they can relocate their plant and garden stalls.
Mang Victor
Mang Victor is one of the plant stall tenants in Greenhouse # 3 within Manila Seedling Bank compound . He specializes on native plants, orchids and ornamental plants.
Ms. Vangie Go- plant stall
I saw Ms. Vangie Go at her newly re-opened store within the center. The selling area is smaller than what she used to have at the Manila Seedling Bank Foundation. She is still renovating her new place .
plant stall
The big move happened on the first week of January 2014 when almost all of the tenants were forced to find a place for their plants and gardening supplies . Each plant stall is allotted around 50 to 70 square meters . It is a whole lot less space compared to what they have when they are still at the Manila Seedling Bank compound.
stall selling bonsai
They are now in the process of making it to a community . Each stall specializes in a particular plants or products .
semi-terete vandas
eatery
The combined area is around 3,600 square meters with around 30 stalls owners . Most of them are from Greenhouse #3 in Manila Seedling Bank hence they decided to include it in the signage.
Note: Mindanao Avenue Garden Center is also called ” Garden City ” by some of the tenants . The 200 plus tenants were relocated in different garden centers like Farmers Center, Commonwealth Avenue, Quezon Memorial Circle and Mindanao Avenue with the largest number of stall holders.

May I know and pls. give me an idea on how much will be the service charge for Landscaping my Garden in the Phils.? Is it by square meter or square foot?
Hi, Thanks for visiting this site.
If you are living within Novaliches ,Fairview and Quezon City area. I can give some rough estimates base on your lot area , plants , garden accessories etc…. It is FREE but depending on my time schedule – I am only available on sundays . You can set an appointment via my email: L_rence_2003@yahoo.com
I have several questions in mind, BUT without any photos and ocular inspection of your proposed landscape area, I could not give you an estimate.
Some landscapers charge on a per square meter of lot . It totally depends on several factors , sometimes the more complicated the landscaping job, the higher the price.
Hi! Do you have different variety of Chinese evergreen / aglaonema. Thanks and more power!
The author is not into selling of ornamental plants . There are a lot of sellers at the Mindanao Avenue Plant Center ( Talipapa, Novaliches QC) , QC Memorial Circle, Neopolitan Avenue in Fairview, Cartimar Garden Center, Pasay City Araneta Center, Cubao or if you lived near Tabang, Bulacan province- You can try to visit those areas.
You can also try some ornamental plant wholesalers like Boyet Ganigan ( Cavite) , Alily Galo ( QC Circle ), Monina’s Garden ( QC Circle )
Hello po..nagtitjnda rin po ba kau ng lupa para taniman ng halaman??
Reply po Asap.salamat..
Thanks for visiting this blog, Mindanao Avenue Plant Center stall holders had some garden/ compost soil ( packs ) for sale. I do not know if you are referring to big landscape projects that needed big amount of soil. But you can personally visit them anytime.
I would like to ask a few question:
1.) Where do you lived? If you lived near Mindanao Avenue – Then you can pay them a visit, there are over 30 stalls selling a lot of stuffs .
2.) If you do not live near Mindanao Avenue, then there are a lot of garden centers around Metro Manila like QC circle, Neopolitan Avenue, Fairview, Tandang Sora, Cartimar , Cubao etc….
is garden city on the side of Saint Charbel subd? im coming from congressional & visayas ave? i want to know if we need to u-turn?
YES, After the Barangay Talipapa Hall / Barangay Tandang Sora footbridge
Mindanao Avenue Garden Center is located beside the barangay hall ( Talipapa) after the foot bridge
I am looking for jacaranda seeds or seedlings. Do you think this is available over there?
Please try to visit – Tabang area and Centris during sunday
do you think they have azalea or rhododendron in mindanao garden center
Hello and Thanks for visiting this site.
I think you need to ask the sellers if they carry these types of plants, most of them are from temperate areas like Baguio , Tagaytay or Silang area.
Hi,do you know if they sell carabao grass at Mindanao avenue garden center?
I have seen some carabao grass being sold at Mindanao Avenue Garden Center, They are also available in Fairview Neopolitan area garden outlets.
Hi, do you happen to know if they sell sage plants? Thanks! Nice thread by the way.
Hello!! Are you offering bulk orders of garden soil. Im interested in buying sacks of it for my garden. Can you also include your price for orders per sack? Thank you!
Hello and Good day , Mr.Gerald and Jolo,
Sage plant is sometime available at the Mindanao Avenue Plant Center or you may try them at Centris Sunday Market within Eaton Centris , It is near MRT Quezon Avenue station. Sometimes due to the high demand of these plants – plant traders / wholesalers would run out of stock. There are herb plant sellers like Mr. Jason Wong from Mabuhay Orchids and Plants APO Wong or Mr. Jason Wong-09176333138 , Email: jpcw13@yahoo.com.ph , You may try visiting QC Circle or Farmers Garden in Cubao, which areas nearest and most convenient to your home.
Mr. Gerald, The author is not into selling of garden soil, You can try to visit plant garden nearest to your place , It depends on the quality of garden soil or soil mixture that you need.
Some sellers, sell them by sack – Which i think is quite expensive , Some sells them per truck , but you need to mix them with other soil mixture like coconut choir dust , compost , sand etc.. if you want a better garden soil mixture. Instead of the loamy type of soil which tends to be very compact.
If you do not have a large space / garden or just planning to use them for potting medium , I think it is better to purchase per sack .
Here are some of the garden center within Metro Manila:
Bulacan Garden ( Farmer’s , Cubao ) , Rona’s Garden – Visayas Avenue , Mindanao Avenue Garden Center, Fairview Neopolitan area, White Plains, Cartimar , BF Homes Paranaque , Quezon City Memorial Circle or Tabang/ Guiguinto – Bulacan are some of the places which you can probably some online selling sites like OLX, Facebook.
Thanks for visiting this site!
Thanks for the info Renz! 🙂 Appreciate it
Where is the Manila Seedling Bank new garden site?
Hello and Thanks for visiting this site.
Majority of the Manila Seedling Bank Foundation tenants moved to the following areas
1.) Quezon Memorial Circle – There are between 50 to 80 permanent plant stalls to semi-permanent stalls.
2.) Cubao-Araneta Center -Some of the tenant including some wholesalers ( cactus and succulents from Benguet ) have moved there. Although there is a plant center there already establish for several decades.
3.) Mindanao Avenue within Barangay Talipapa near Saint Charbel Subdivision – There are between 25 to 30 plant stall holders from wholesalers to retailers- Ms. Vangie Go , Professor Serapion Metilla had stall in that place.
4.) Neopolitan – Commonwealth road – Although there had been plant stalls there several decades ago along the main street -near Jordan Plains. There are some plant stall holders which moved there.
5.) Cedarhills Garden Center- There are 2 to 3 plant stall holders like Waling-Waling by Puentespina which moved there sometime in 2014 .
6.) EDSA Garden House had stalls within Quezon Memorial Circle and EDSA beside Times street .
7.) Sidcor-Centris Sunday Market – This is a non-permanent stall, there are wholesalers from Bulacan , Cavite, Batangas and Quezon province who have stalls there.
Note: Some of the tenants who used to have stalls within Manila Seedling Bank moved to their respective province. There are about 100 to 250 plant tenants. Not everyone can be accommodated by these places.
may quality soil ba sila dito which is non organic? I’m gonna try to use it as dirt for my aquarium and also are they selling cheap price for rocks like tingi, I just wanna do a canvass so that i can prepared my budget. uhm miracle-gro? do they have this brand if not please let me know, soil which is not organic.
I suggest to buy per sack for pebbles rather than the small packs- . Not all stalls have organic soil mixture .
i mean yung talagang wala pong fertilizer, and meron din po bang potting clay soil yung ginagamit para gumawa ng paso balak ko lang kasi bumili ng around 2 kilos, soil per sack po magkano? if makakapunta ako by sunday what time sila nag operate?
nahihiya kasi ako pumunta since ilan lang naman bibilhin ko.
salamat renz.
