Near the Lunar New Year of Binh Ngo, the spring flower market in Da Nang becomes bustling when hundreds of peach trees from northern provinces are transported to be sold along major roads.
From huyền shape peach blossoms, phai peach blossoms to traditional red peach blossoms, many different price levels meet the diverse needs of people.
On Hoang Thi Loan street (Hoa Khanh ward, Da Nang city), these days hundreds of peach trees are gathered and displayed for sale, attracting many people to visit and choose.
Ms. Pham Thi Dao, owner of a peach garden in Hung Yen province (old Hai Duong) said that this year her family brought more than 200 peach trees of all kinds to Da Nang. Among them, huyền shaped peach trees are of great interest to many people with a price of about 2.8 million VND/tree. Smaller trees range from around 1 million VND, depending on the shape and blooming rate.
Not only large peach trees, but also mini peach branches for table display also attract customers. Each small pot costs from 400,000 - 500,000 VND, suitable for apartment spaces, townhouses with medium and small areas.
Recorded at sales points, many people take the opportunity to refer to and choose to buy beautiful peach branches. Mr. Nguyen Van Minh (Hoa Khanh ward, Da Nang city) said that he really likes beautiful diamond-shaped peach trees, but because his house does not have much space, he only chooses to buy a peach branch to put in a vase to reserve for the living room.
I bought this peach branch for 400,000 VND. Just one peach branch is enough to create a Tet atmosphere, both neat and economical. This year, the peach blossoms are beautiful, and the price is also reasonable, so I chose to buy them in time for Tet display," Mr. Minh said.
On the street specializing in flowers, ornamental plants, and handicrafts in An Khe ward (Da Nang City), peach branches of all kinds are also chosen by many families to display for Tet. Stores display a variety of designs, from compact branches to large branches with many buds, meeting the decorative needs of people.
The bustling trading atmosphere lasts from morning to night. For many small traders, bringing peach blossoms hundreds of kilometers into Da Nang is not only a business story but also a journey to make a living every Tet and spring.
