I live in Burnaby. | My suggestion would be to go to Garden Works and talk to one of the employees there. They have 2 locations in burnaby, one in South Burnaby (Nelson and Marine Way) or they have one just off Lougheed Hwy 2 blocks east of Holdom skytrain station. 20 Gorgeous Indoor Shade House Plants | Container Gardening
Also try looking through those and see if anything strikes his fancy. Indoor shade plants are good because they don't need a lot of attention (stay away from the orchids imo) and don't require a lot of sunlight. Plus they look neat. Oh also, I would probably stay away from any sort of ivy. They like to grow and take over areas, so unless he wants his desk/mantle covered in ivy, you should probably look at other types of plants.
One more thing, what sort of conditions does his apartment have? Directional facing, hot/muggy or heat almost always off, etc
If he's like me and doesn't have a green thumb (I recently killed my Jasmine and African Violets, kind of forgot they were there... surprisingly my aloe is still alive...) try some of these plants http://houseplants.about.com/od/pick...testPlants.htm Not being able to kill a mother in law's tongue plant is a lie btw, I killed mine.

Which area of Burnaby? | I'm in the Lougheed area, so Garden Works by Holdom seems like a good bet. i was thinking even small flower shops might have something. I got him a terrarium already, but it's a tiny little plant. I think he's looking for something more substantial but not so big that it'll take over his room. Quote:

You know Revscene has a Lordco account for its members, right?
You just mention Revscene account and you get a bit of a discount. Not much, but better than nothing.
I receve a deep discount through my old workplace at Lordco, but not gonna give it out - don't want to lose it, LOL. Abuse it and lose it, is what they say. You can always ask a friend who has better account at Lordco to get you stuff.

Mariners Team Store (store number two - kinda like the Canucks Team Srore on Renfrew) is in the same mall. I always walk by the store on the way to Daiso.
I'll need the pic by 10 am Sunday.
