“In the past, the flowers sold were mainly chrysanthemums, but now customers choose to buy more lilies and gladiolus to display on Tet. The variety of flower prices and designs also helps customers choose easily,” said Ms. Nguyen Anh Chi, a flower stall vendor in this area.

Most flowers are the same price as last year's Tet and most only range from 10,000 to 500,000 VND/bunch depending on the type. Lilies range from 200,000 to 400,000 VND/bunch; gladiolus range from 80,000 to 150,000 VND/bunch.

Ms. Minh Chi (Hai Chau district) after a walk around the flower street in the Han market area and buying some bunches of willows and chrysanthemums was happy to see that the Tet flowers were the same price as usual, not much higher.

“With this price, customers can choose more freely without worrying about calculating expenses. If the price is too high, I will only buy flowers for worship, but I will consider more carefully if I want to display them in the living room,” Chi shared.
