This year, the peach blossom village of Kim Thanh commune has 29 hectares and Minh Thanh has 30 hectares. Peach blossoms are grown in home gardens, and due to the suitable soil, the peach trees grow well. Photo: Xuan Hoang |

| Mr. Phan Quoc Thuat's family in Dong Ban hamlet, Kim Thanh commune, plans to have 300 peach trees for sale this year during Tet. In order for each peach tree to produce new buds and flowers for Tet, at this time, all the family's staff will go to the peach garden to pick old leaves. For peach trees that are many years old, people have to put up high chairs to pick all the leaves. Photo: Xuan Hoang |

| Families that grow a lot of peach trees but have little manpower must hire workers to pick the leaves in time, otherwise the peach trees will not be beautiful. According to peach growers in Yen Thanh, this year due to the impact of the rain in early October, many peach trees lost their leaves, causing them to bloom early. Therefore, the number of peach trees sold this Tet holiday has decreased, so the selling price will be higher than previous years. Photo: Xuan Hoang |

Mr. Cao Xuan Toan - Chairman of Kim Thanh Commune People's Committee said: With 29 hectares of peach trees in the locality, this year's Tet, people will sell about 30% of the total number of trees, equivalent to about 15,000 trees, with an estimated value of nearly 5 billion VND. According to Mr. Tran Khanh Tung - Chairman of Minh Thanh Commune People's Committee, although there are still 15 days left until Tet, many customers have come to the garden to place orders.
