These days, people in Nghe An province are starting to go out to the streets to choose and buy kumquat and pomelo trees to decorate for the Lunar New Year of the Year of the Snake 2025.

For nearly half a month now, Ms. Pham Hieu, the owner of a flower and ornamental plant stall in front of Vinh City's Central Park (Le Mao Street), has been transporting ornamental pomelo trees and kumquat bonsai from Van Giang (Hung Yen) to Vinh to sell for Tet (Lunar New Year). Photo: TP

According to Ms. Hieu, this year, the supply of kumquats and pomelos is scarcer than in previous years due to the growing areas being severely affected by Typhoon Yagi. As a result, prices have increased by 20-30% compared to previous years. (Photo: TP)
