Mr. Vuong Xuan Phuong, the seller of this tree, said this is the largest pot of double mai in the 10 years he has cultivated this variety. It has an eye-catching shape, with a moss-covered trunk and rough roots.

Mr. Minh, a collector of unique bonsai in Sa Pa, assessed that "this price is not expensive" because this mai tree pot is 4 meters long, has a large, rough base. However, this mai tree pot still has many leaves, so it is difficult to observe the shape and form. Therefore, when customers buy, they must observe carefully and pay according to their budget.

Mr. Vuong Xuan Phuong also owns thousands of mai trees in Sa Pa (Lao Cai). He said he has sold 80% of the trees because this flower variety is the most sought after and "best-selling" this year. Also because it is popular, the price of mai trees this year is higher than every year.

The mai flower is known as the "king" of flowers, its beauty is pure. This flower is white and lasts longer than other types of yellow apricot. When it first blooms, the flower has only a unique white color, when it fades it will turn into a fiery red color, full of vitality and gradually fall off. The flower has a positive meaning, towards a peaceful and happy life. The mai flower usually only blooms in spring and will not bear fruit. They are praised as the flower that carries the national soul and quintessence of the Vietnamese people.
