This is the peak time for people to buy peach blossoms for Tet. Unlike the bustling and crowded image every year, this year many peach blossom traders are worried because many trees have bloomed, causing the peach blossoms to lose value.

Ms. Hoang Thanh Mai, Nghi Long commune, Nghi Loc sighed: We invested more than 200 million to buy 300 peach trees for Tet from Nam Dinh, however, after 1 week, we have only sold 50 trees. Many peach trees have bloomed in the sun, it is almost Tet but we see few customers asking to buy. Photo: Quang An |

To minimize the blooming of peaches, some peach traders use strings to tie them tightly, not letting the peach petals spread out, avoiding direct sunlight. Only those who want to buy peaches will open them up for customers to see. Photo: Quang An |

In addition, many people choose to use tarpaulins to shield peach trees from the sun. However, this method is only a temporary solution, if the sun continues to shine in the coming days, the last flower buds will eventually bloom. At this rate, many traders say they will suffer heavy losses. Photo: Quang An |
