The charming, pure flower has become the symbol of winter in Hanoi in recent years. People would buy bunches of white daisies to lighten their rooms, or simply to take some photos with their favorite flowers.
“These are the very first bunches of daisies that us florists got from flower retailers in Tay Tuy, Tay Ho gardens. The flowers only bloom for about 3 weeks, so we try to make the best use of the time. This year, each bunch of daisies is priced at VND 80,000 – 100,000 (US $3.46 – 4.33),” Mr. Hoang Thanh Thang, a florist in Hanoi, told Infonet.
