Daisy season - winter is coming
Daisy flowers usually bloom in late October and early November, lasting until the end of December. When the first cold winds of winter blow, on the streets of Hanoi, the image of white daisy flower baskets everywhere makes people feel the distinct flavor of winter. This is also the time when flower gardens in West Lake Flower Valley become an ideal destination for people and tourists to admire the pure beauty of this flower.
Located in Tay Ho district, West Lake Flower Valley has a large area of up to 3 hectares, of which about 70% of the area is dedicated to growing flowers. The daisy garden here is about 5,000 m² wide, a special highlight that attracts many people and tourists to visit and take pictures.
The flower valley attracts many tourists to admire.
Due to the impact of Typhoon Yagi in September, this year's daisy season came later than usual. Many flower gardens on the Red River bank were damaged by storms and floods. Although the water receded quickly, garden owners did not have time to replant the flowers so that the daisies would bloom on time. Thanks to its location within the dike, the flower valley was only slightly affected and still maintained a steady amount of flowers, although the blooming time was 2-3 weeks later than usual. Instead of starting to fade at the end of November, this is the time when the flowers are in full bloom, creating a poetic and attractive scene.
The pure beauty of daisies
Daisies are known as "winter flowers", but to make these beautiful white flowers bloom in season requires a lot of effort from the grower. The flowers are usually planted from July and only start blooming in November. During the care process, gardeners must use nets to block out light, ensuring the flowers grow healthy and bloom at the right time.
Daisy has a simple beauty that is hard to compare with any other flower. With small, straight stems, pure white petals and shimmering yellow pistils, this flower blooms best under the sunlight. Each flower is only about 3-4cm in diameter, but when clustered together, daisy creates a vibrant natural picture.
Although daisies come in many different colors such as white, pink, yellow, and red, white is always the top choice because it symbolizes purity and innocence. This flower not only beautifies Hanoi’s winter but also becomes a source of inspiration for many art lovers, from photography to poetry.
