Ten years of selling Tet flowers, there has never been a year as empty as this year

Ms. Ngoc Bich (living in District 6), a small merchant, looked at the deserted scene at the flower market on the followingnoon of the 29th of Tet. “Every year, on the 29th of Tet, we sell most of it, but this year it is still intact. The price of a large pot of chrysanthemums every year sells for 800,000 dong, this year sold 500,000 dong and no one bought it,” Ms. Bich said.
