At that time, the lotus with thousand wings created a “fever”, people racing to buy seeds to plant. A lotus seed of a thousand petals has a price ranging from 400,000 to 500,000 VND, and a lotus pot of this type costs up to a million VND. The thousand-petaled lotus is like a foreign lotus. Because of the number of petals so many, it is called a lotus with a thousand petals or a lotus with a thousand layers. The red-pink lotus usually has between 800 and 1,000 petals (our lotus is less than 20 petals). Outside, the petals are large, the more inward the petals are smaller and dense. The thousand-petaled lotus is very wrong, the flower is nearly as big as the hand. Compared with other lotus species, the thousand-petaled lotus is very long gone. At this time, instead of selling plants or bulbs, on the “internet market” many people sell flower cut flowers like other traditional lotus. However, the price of a thousand-petaled lotus is quite expensive, up to 150,000-200,000 VND / 5 flowers, 5-7 times more expensive than ordinary lotus depending on type. Not to mention, people who love this type of lotus still have to “lay bricks” for 4-7 days to have them. Even in bad weather, you have to order about 2 weeks in advance. Ms. Truong Dieu Anh – a focal point selling fresh flowers in Ha Dong (Hanoi) – said on Vietnamnet, this year is the second year she sells thousand petals, but on the market this kind of lotus supply is quite rare. “Actually selling fresh flowers is just a part-time job. However, I always choose to sell exotic and beautiful flowers. The same goes for thousands of petals. To find a supply, it takes me a long time to discover the house.” This lotus pond will cut flowers for sale, “she said. She also said that the dresser reported that the flower output this year would be more. However, it will take two more weeks to start flowering. At that time, the amount of cut cotton will be available for retail and wholesale. At this time, the volume of goods is still quite modest, there are only 2 flights a week, customers who want to buy must book 3-5 days in advance.
