At this time, peach farmers in Nghe An are busy stripping leaves to dig new buds and shoots, ready to supply peaches for Tet 2025...

From the middle of the 11th lunar month, people in peach growing areas in the province such as Nam Anh, Nam Xuan (Nam Dan), Kim Thanh, Hung Thanh (Yen Thanh), Nghi An, Nghi Lien (Vinh City), Quynh Vinh, Quynh Loc (Hoang Mai Town), Quynh Tan, Quynh Thang (Quynh Luu) ... are busy removing leaves from peach trees.

According to locals, stripping peach leaves is one of the most important steps and must be done at the right time to reveal the buds and produce large, beautiful and even flower buds. Photo: TP

The time to strip leaves depends on each peach variety, the type that sells branches is stripped later than the type that sells the whole tree. In the photo: Farmers in Quynh Vinh commune (Hoang Mai town) strip leaves on peach trees that sell branches. Photo: TP

According to forecasts, from now until Tet, there will be many cold spells, so the "new coat" for peach trees is carried out 7-10 days earlier than previous years. The bonsai peach gardens in Nghi Lien commune (Vinh city) were "shedded" a few days ago. Photo: TP

Stripping leaves from peach trees is done entirely by hand, requiring meticulousness and effort, stripping each branch one by one, stripping the young, weak branches first, then the old, strong branches. Photo: TP

Every day, a diligent worker can only strip the leaves of about 4-5 peach trees. Photo: TP

The peach trees have been planted for 3 to 4 years, some trees are about 2 - 2.5m high, the expected selling price ranges from 1-2 million VND/tree". Photo: TP
