Jadaf Garhoud plant souk has shifted to...........

Weeks and weeks into the start of the annual planting season, we were still unable to locate the new area to which the old nursery's in Jadaf had moved. All thos who went in search of the new location in the Dragon mart and international city area came back lost and angry. Everyone was upset, and it seemed like this year there would be no planting of the flowering annuals. So yesterday we decided to find this area and set off and as was expexted we got lost. then we thought maybe we should go back to Jadaf and look for clues. At jadaf, the place looked sad and forlorn, the green area was all a wast sandy wasteland. Cars were making rounds and everyone looking for plants to buy. One lone old mas sat there with a few plants, Marigold mostly and we asked him, and he said" Dragon mart area, just go there, You will see it." But we knew we had tried and needed exact area details. Then a man who was buying plants from the old man told us how to get there.
So here goes.
To get to the new location.....
Once you reach the Dragon mart from Dubai, continue going staight till you reach a big roundabout, turn right here. The road is named Dubai academic city road, then you come to a smaller roundabout where you turn left and this area is warsan, here on your right, the nurseries and located. They are actually in a bigger area than Jadaf. Petunia are all laid out and ready for buying. 
A huge lot of Chrysanthemums are also there. 
Dianthus is also available now.
This area is near the sewage treatment plant and you can see hundreds and hundreds of tankers carrying sewage waiting to unload their sewage load at the plant.
