| From peach branches grown by local people, to wild peaches, peaches brought from Laos are sold, mainly Lao peaches, because in reality, the peach growing area in the highland districts has decreased, after people changed the crop structure. Photo: Ho Phuong |

| This year, due to the leap month and early spring, the peach blossoms bloomed early. Photo: Ho Phuong |

| According to sellers, this year's peach blossom prices are slightly higher than last year's because the peach blossoms bloomed early, so there will be few beautiful branches left near Tet. Old, mossy peach branches satisfy even the most demanding customers, with prices ranging from several million to tens of millions depending on the size and shape of the peach branch...

| From the highland roads, peach blossoms are transported downstream one after another and Tet seems to be approaching very soon. Mr. Cao Dong, a peach blossom buyer, said, "For my family, Tet cannot be without peach blossoms, because it is the color of spring, and having peach blossoms in the house is considered Tet, so sometimes the price is not an issue."
