Expert Advice on Buying Flowers at Hồ Thị Kỷ Market

Choose reputable stores to purchase flowers

When buying flowers, opt for larger stores. These establishments tend to have more reliable products and offer better prices due to their large-scale imports. Additionally, the flowers are fresher and more diverse, without mixing in older or lower-quality blooms.

Purchase flowers consistently from select stores

If buying retail, you can select any store where the flowers appear fresher and more beautiful. However, for wholesale buyers or flower traders, it's advisable to purchase from specific stores. Firstly, you'll establish long-term relationships with the store, ensuring better quality flowers. Secondly, both parties benefit from the transaction, fostering trust and potentially leading to better prices in the long run.

Master the art of selecting fresh, beautiful flowers

Select flowers that are full, with fresh stems, leaves, and parts. Flowers should be fresh, with bright colors, firm petals, not soft or bruised. When choosing flowers, check that their stems are green, straight, and firm, which helps them stay fresh longer.

Pre-order flowers for major holidays

Buying flowers during holidays can become much more difficult if you don't pre-order. So, take the initiative to contact the shop owner to place your flower order in advance!
