At the beginning of the 9th lunar month, people start preparing for the Tet flower season. When 12th lunar month comes, the pace of work is even busier-watering and tending the flowers to ensure they mature at the right pace to bloom simultaneously and beautifully for New Year's Day. (Photo: VTC)
Flower growers in Tay Tuu share that in addition to planting techniques, the decisive factor is the weather. If it is sunny and warm and the humidity is high, the flowers will bloom easily, but if it rains continuously, the flowers will not flourish. (Photo: PhapLuatvaXaHoi)
Although the weather has been irregular, this year the Tay Tuu flowers have bloomed beautifully, promising a high yield. (Photo: Nguoiduatin)
