With an altitude of 1,500 m, Da Lat's nature is dyed a darker green when the rainy season comes from May to October every year, in which July to September has the highest average rainfall compared to the remaining months. The rainy season occurs in the early morning and late afternoon every day, fog covers many places, making the urban area in the forest and the forest in the urban area become dreamy like a fairyland. And the dry season, Da Lat starts from November of the previous year to April of the following year. If Da Lat in the dry season focuses on caring for, thinning planted forests, preventing and fighting forest fires, then Da Lat in the rainy season is also the season of planting forests to separate forestry land and agricultural land, planting scattered trees to enhance the green color of nature from schools, offices, residential areas to new rural roads, parks, urban parks, central urban roads... As in 2025, Da Lat urban areas aim to complete planting 18 hectares of new forests, take care of nearly 35 hectares of planted forests, protect and promote regeneration of 4 hectares, plant 1,274,100 trees, scattered trees in the program of planting 3.8 million trees in the area. Of which, 1,124,100 trees are planted on non-forestry planning land, including traffic routes, national highways, provincial roads passing through the area, inner-city roads, village axes, internal roads, and intra-field roads; residential areas, residential groups, concentrated production areas, parks, flower gardens, squares, other public land areas; offices, factories, apartment buildings, educational, medical, cultural, sports, religious facilities, cemeteries, business headquarters, cooperatives, farms. In particular, strive for each household to achieve the target of planting 30 trees in rural areas and 2 trees in urban areas. In addition, landscape trees, shade trees, fruit trees are planted around residential land and agricultural land on this plateau.
Particularly on the forestry planning land in 2025, the urban areas of Da Lat will plant 150,000 new trees during the rainy season, distributed on vacant land areas, and additional planting in some low-density forests and depleted forests to improve forest quality; planting on encroached, re-encroached forest land that has been cleared, or recovered and does not meet the criteria for afforestation after clearance, vacant land areas that do not meet the criteria for concentrated afforestation; planting on forestry land adjacent to agricultural production land and land in the main traffic corridor, forming a green median strip; planting to restore forest cover on the forestry planning land area currently under agricultural cultivation. In addition, businesses and investors will be mobilized to organize additional tree planting, scattered afforestation on the assigned forestry land area, leased forest land, forestry land, etc.
The results of the implementation of the plan to plant 3.8 million trees in the period of 2021 - 2025, notably in area 17, Sub-area 144 of Da Lat plateau, Lam Vien Forest Management Board coordinated with Dinh Doi Company Limited to mobilize 100 people from Colline hotel to plant 2,000 three-leaf pine trees, all costs paid by "Dinh Doi". The specialized units in charge of protecting and enriching the green nature of the Da Lat plateau added: “The state budget supports seedlings of three-leaf pine, cherry blossom, and purple phoenix trees planted in public places, small-scale forestry land areas, areas that do not meet the criteria for concentrated forest planting, vacant land areas, and reclaimed encroached areas that do not meet the criteria for forest planting after clearance. And socialized resources are mobilized from enterprises, cooperatives, farm owners, households, and individuals who proactively buy seedlings, organize planting of green trees, multi-purpose trees according to appropriate species and needs on forestry land under agricultural cultivation, planted on the banks of areas, plots, and planted around greenhouses and net houses...”.

Thereby improving the efficiency of regulating a clean climate, maintaining a stable water source for the delta, beautifying the tourist landscape environment, and creating a stable forest cover rate of more than 51%...
More than nine decades ago, poet Han Mac Tu came to Da Lat plateau and painted the picture "The shimmering pine trees stand in silence/ How can we distinguish between reality and illusion". This picture still has the main feature of peaceful, quiet, and magical perspective in the transformation of the whole picture of the sky, the vast green nature of Da Lat plateau.
