Many peach growers said that, according to the law, every year peach blossoms in Quy Chau will bloom twice, the first time is in the 5th lunar month (this time peach blossoms only bloom but do not bear fruit); the second time peach blossoms start from around the end of November to the middle of December of the lunar calendar to prepare for Tet. However, this year, in early November, all the peach blossoms have fallen. Photo: Be Vinh |

According to people in Quy Chau, peach blossoms in the villages are popular near Tet because of their beautiful flowers, long blooming, large buds, and many shoots. Each peach branch is sold in the garden for 300,000 - 500,000 VND, beautiful branches cost millions. However, this year, peach blossoms bloom too early, peach growers here are worried about losing millions of dong. Photo: Be Vinh |
