Irony: Bought bonsai apples to display for Tet but they bloomed into hibiscus flowers

There are only about 2 weeks left until Lunar New Year, so at this time, many people are busy preparing to decorate their houses for Tet. One of the most popular choices is bonsai pots. This year, the most popular is the dwarf apple tree - a hybrid apple grown in a bonsai pot that can be both displayed and has "nutritional" value.

In addition to the millions of dollars worth of bonsai apples, there are also many cheap bonsai apples on the market, only about 250,000-500,000 VND/tree. These apples are sold by traders who fill up their carts and sell them on the streets.

On Facebook, an account named N.D.T shared the story of his family's apple tree blooming with hibiscus flowers.

On social networking sites, many sellers claim that bonsai apples are grown using advanced technology so they bear fruit, and there is absolutely no use of 502 glue to attach the fruit. Customers buy them to display for Tet for a whole month, and after the fruit has fallen off, they can plant them so that the tree will flower and bear fruit again next season.

It is noted in the market that although this bonsai is not a new item, it is quite popular with customers to buy for Tet. However, many people have been tricked into buying hibiscus trees that are laden with... apples.

Dwarf apple tree blooms hibiscus flowers, causing a stir on social networks

Indeed, when looking at the photo that this person posted, many people will certainly feel attracted by the bright red jujubes hanging. However, when observing more closely the leaves and flower buds, many people have realized that this is a hibiscus tree.

Those who have known or experienced similar situations can only humorously suggest that the tree should be watered with 502 glue to keep it fresh. If properly preserved, this “buddha apple” tree can be enjoyed throughout the next Tet season.

Similarly, Ms. Minh Lien (Hanoi) bought a dwarf apple tree to "play" with for 420,000 VND. This type of tree produces red flowers identical to hibiscus flowers, but the fruit is 100% real apples - looking fresh and delicious. Not long after, the truth was revealed when recently the mice in the house looked at her "strange" apple tree. Yesterday, the mice made a mess, ate half of the apple, only then did she realize that the apple stem was attached with 502 glue. In fact, it is not a strange variety, but this is just a hibiscus tree with an apple stuck on it for liveliness.

Looks nice but is actually just a "handmade" product.

In the same situation, on social networks, many people who bought bonsai apples to display for Tet were surprised to discover that the tree they bought was not an apple but a jackfruit-apple hybrid, a hibiscus-apple hybrid, etc. Accordingly, these hybrid apple trees purchased after only a few days will have all the fruit fall off, revealing super advanced growing technology using "502 glue", steel wire technology or iron nails.
