The Lunar New Year Festival (Tet) is still a month away, but gardeners in Nhat Tan flower village, Hanoi are taking special care of peach blossoms and kumquat trees to meet consumers’ demands during Tet. 

  The owner of a peach garden in Nhat Tan said several peach branches are bought in advance although peach flowers will be in full bloom in the next two weeks.

   A beautiful peach branch is priced between VND50,000 and VND70,000. 

Many peach branches are displayed for sale along the road to Nhat Tan flower garden.

     Several well-shaped peach trees are transported to Lac Long Quan street for sale.
