In contrast to the cheap price of plums for rice, many dealers have turned to selling plums with whole branches in a set that is extremely popular. Not only that, the set of plum branches with ripe fruit and green leaves is being sold at a high price, from 250,000 to 500,000 VND / set depending on large and small branches. Ms. Nguyen An – a clue selling flowers in Thanh Tri (Hanoi) – said that she has only been selling plum branches for about 2 weeks. Because she is new, she can both buy and play to decorate and eat the fruit, so this item is selling well. Like this time, plum rice at the end of the season, so the quantity is not much, customers have to book 3-4 days in advance to get it. The wrong rice plum branches are being sold at extremely expensive prices in Hanoi. (Photo by Nhat Thanh) According to An, this year, although plums are cheaper than vegetables, they are still unprecedented. In many garden houses in Son La, plums are ripe red, farmers do not bother to harvest, fall full root. To help family members grow plums, she sells more sets of plum branches that have the wrong fruit, hoping to help with any money or contract. However, not all branches can be cut because they can be kept so that the tree can bear fruit in the next season. Therefore, gardeners only prune beautiful small branches, about 50-55 cm long, many fruits and leaves. The collection is therefore very strenuous and time consuming. Sometimes a week, goods can return 2-3 flights but not often. “I sell in a set of 7-8 stems / set for 250,000 VND / set to fill a large pot. Yesterday, I returned more than 200 sets of red ripe plum sets delivered to pre-booked customers. Many people urged to order, I have to wait until the plum season is coming, ”she said. Ms. Tran Thi Hoai – a flower sales agent in Minh Khai (Hai Ba Trung, Hanoi) – also said that at this time, the plum is at the end of the season, the fruit is ripe much red so cutting branches and transporting are very difficult. towels and not much because the fruit easily falls off. Nearly 1 month ago, green plums were easier to sell, one time she sold nearly 1,000 branches. 1kg of rice plums only costs a few VND, but a set of a few plum branches costs up to 250,000 VND. (Photo by Nhat Thanh) There is even a set of rice plum branches, which are sold for 500,000 VND, are still out of stock. (Photo by Nhat Thanh) Ms. Hoai said that in no year has she sold plum branches with whole fruit instead of selling the fruit by weight as this year. Plum rice prices fell, she retailed only 10,000-15,000 VND / kg, even down to 7,000 VND / kg in some times, it was still dull, sparsely bought, and red ripe fruit had to be thrown away. Meanwhile, the plum branches she sells with prices ranging from 250,000 to 500,000 VND / set (5-10 branches) depending on the size of the branches are big or small. Most customers buy 1-2 sets of living room decoration plugs. However, the goods are almost not available, when customers order, she will collect them to return the customer to freshen. “Whole rice plum branches can be played for 5-6 days, but now it’s the end of the season. The plum season starts early, I cut off and sell the branches that are still nursing and ripe so that they can be played for longer ”, said Ms. Hoai. Keeping up with the trend of playing the whole tree with the atmosphere of the mountains and forests, for two weeks, Dang Thu Phuong from Nghia Tan (Cau Giay, Hanoi) often bought plum branches to play with because she looked at the plum branches. very fond of eyes, close to nature, unlike the lifeless fake branches that she bought on Tet. However, to buy 2 sets of plum branches, she has to ask for a few clues that must be booked 3-4 days in advance. “Although the plum branch is much more expensive than buying the fruit by weight, I still buy it because it is decorated and eaten at the same time. Like the time to leave the plum blossom, red ripe fruit in the living room, sometimes picking a fruit feels like being in the plum garden in Son La, ”Ms. Phuong said happily.
