  Hi guys,
  
  Need a little help here.
  
  Need to find lots of these Xiang Si Dou...I do not know what they are called in English, they are little seeds which are red in colour bore by a certain tree.
  
  Is there anyway to buy them else are there any locations in which i could 'pick' them up?
  
  Thanks a bunch!

  They are known as Saga Seeds.
  
  Depends on where your location.
  
  I known such trees at Mountbatten Swimming Pool, where people turns into the Laselle school entrance.

  the last time i went, all no have liao.
  
  heard got those shopowners ask ppl go there collect, then they make into jars and sell.
  
  TS can also try st. andrew's cathedral or blair rd. there are also such trees at ang mo kio town gardens west behind the soon-to-be-opened 24hr macs, but its a slope with ants so wear shoes.
  
  i saw the saga seed trees at alexandra hospital as well, but dunno why on the ground dun have seeds.

  I think Botanical gardens would be a better place to pick them up.
  
  FireIce: Where is this Grandplaza ParkRoyal located?
  
  1 more note, where are the shops (Or what Kind) that sell these saga seeds? This is my last resort if i can't collect enough.
  
  Thanks alot for the replies people, i really appreciate it.

  It's for my lady but i'm having alot of work commitments.
  
  I'll try to find time to pick the seeds but i doubt i'll have much time mucking around bushes and trees to find the 'right' amount.
