Think plant nursery and you’d likely envision rows of potted plants in a plain open space or warehouse of sorts. However, this isn’t your conventional nursery. Instead, it’s a 2-storey glasshouse featuring an open-air area on the first floor and floor-to-ceiling glass windows on the second level.

Aside from offering great aesthetics and a lovely atmosphere to browse in, they have a wide selection of over 50 types of flowers and plants. Whether you’re looking for indoor flowering plants that are pretty yet easy to care for, such as orchids, or to grow your own vegetable plants like watercress, you can count on them to have what you’re looking for.

The nursery also has occasional workshops for children to learn more about gardening – from planting seeds to watering and taking care of their own flowers. Stay tuned to their Facebook page for updates, and see if they have any upcoming events lined up with your JB trip.

Aside from the aesthetic glass greenhouse itself, Artscape Landscape has a vast garden which gets illuminated with LED paths to resemble something like a maze. Pictures around the nursery are great in the day, but hang around till night falls and watch the place light up – making the perfect shot for the ‘Gram.

We recommend visiting either early in the morning or in the late afternoon when the temperature is cooler. Better yet, plan your trip around sundown to see the nursery both when it’s still bright, and when the garden maze comes to life at nightfall.
Keep in mind to dress comfortably with proper shoes, as there’s a fair bit of walking around and exploring to be done.
To get there, enter JB via Woodlands Checkpoint. After passing through the checkpoint, it’s another 18-26-minute drive to reach the nursery, depending on traffic conditions
If you’re looking at public transportation, take bus 170X from Woodlands Checkpoint to Johor Bahru Checkpoint. Afterwards, walk about 4 minutes towards JB Sentral before taking bus T14 towards Opposite Kampung Melayu Pandan. After alighting, you’ll need to walk about 35 minutes in order to reach the nursery, which is quite the journey.
Whether you’re looking to bring home a new plant or just have a fun day out with nature, flowers, and fresh air, be sure to add Artscape Landscape to your list of JB haunts. It’s also kid-friendly which allows youngins to learn more about nature and what it takes to care for a plant, indirectly teaching them about responsibility as well.
For other things to do during your trip across the Causeway, check out the thrift stores in JB, a new bar where you can play with kitties called Lucky Cat by SSHHH, and the TikTok-famous DIY instant noodle bar, Koramie JB.
