(Baonghean.vn) - With just over a month until the Lunar New Year, farmers in Nghia Hoa flower village (Thai Hoa town) are rushing to complete the final stages of care, hoping for a bountiful flower harvest.This year, in addition to traditional flowers, lilies have truly taken root in Phu Quy...
 |
| Driven by a determination to diversify crops, Nghia Hoa flower village has been established for four years, covering a total area of over 2 hectares. |
 |
| With a mindset of learning as they go, from initially only growing chrysanthemums for the full moon and first day of the lunar month, Nghia Hoa flower village now boasts a full range of flowers, from chrysanthemums, gladioli, pansies, to even lilies... |
 |
| In addition, the locals also cultivate and propagate native peach blossom varieties. |
 |
| Chrysanthemums are grown year-round by locals to meet market demand. |
 |
| Chrysanthemums are planted continuously in successive seasons, and they receive extra care during the Lunar New Year. |
 |
| To ensure the flowers bloom at the right time, gardeners install light bulbs at night to warm the plants and encourage growth. |
 |
| In particular, having been "admitted" to the village since 2014, lilies are gradually becoming a key crop providing high income for flower growers in Nghia Hoa. |
 |
| Thanks to good varieties and proper care techniques, each lily plant in Nghia Hoa flower village produces five or more buds. |
 |
| In addition to growing lilies in the ground for cut flowers, gardeners in Nghia Hoa also grow them in pots. This gives consumers more options for "beautifying" their homes during Tet. |
 |
| Currently, many traders have come to the gardens to place orders for flowers to sell during Tet (Lunar New Year). According to calculations by flower growers here, the income from growing flowers is more than 10 times higher than growing sugarcane, cassava, etc., and this is also the basis for them to confidently convert the remaining land in the coming years. |
