(Dan Tri) - In the last days of March, many roads in Ho Chi Minh City seem to be "dyed pink" by the color of pink trumpet flowers. Many passersby are attracted by the irresistible beauty of this thin-petaled flower.
In the last days of March, many roads in Ho Chi Minh City such as Nguyen Binh Khiem, Dien Bien Phu, Ham Nghi, Vo Van Kiet, To Huu, Nguyen Tat Thanh... seem to be colored by pink trumpet flowers.
Pink trumpet flowers have been experimentally planted on some roads in the center of Ho Chi Minh City since 2009. Many people also compare this to the cherry blossom of the South.
Pink trumpet flowers grow in clusters of 10-20 flowers. When newly bloomed, the color is light pink and gradually darkens over time. The flowers are shaped like small bells.
At the Dien Bien Phu roundabout area (District 1), pink trumpet flowers bloomed, falling petals covering an entire corner of Nguyen Binh Khiem Street.
“Every year I wait for the pink trumpet at the corner of Dien Bien Phu roundabout to bloom so I can take photos. Falling flower petals covered the sidewalk in a very poetic way," Ms. Thu Thuy (living in Thu Duc City) shared.
Pink trumpet flowers prefer light and dry soil, only blooming in hot weather. The flowers bloom for 4-5 days and then fall.
Normally, pink trumpet flowers bloom from February to the end of May. Originating from America, this flower is also known as pink bell flower.
Pink trumpet flowers blooming on Ham Nghi street (District 1) create an extremely romantic space.
Pink trumpet flowers "bloom" next to the Bitexco building, a symbol of Ho Chi Minh City.
According to some shares from people, the row of pink trumpet trees on Vo Van Kiet Street (District 1) this year blooms less and later than usual.
Many young people also take advantage of the pink trumpet flower blooming season to capture lovely moments with this flower that is likened to "cherry blossoms".
“I happened to pass by here and saw a row of beautiful pink trumpet trees, so my husband and I stopped in to take photos. The whole road is covered with flowers, which reminds me of the feeling of walking on the streets full of cherry blossoms in Da Lat," said Ms. Phan Truc Lam (35 years old, District 1).
The blooming season of pink trumpet flowers is also an inspiration for many young people who love photography.
Walking under the canopy of pink trumpet flowers, it will certainly be an interesting experience when arriving in the city named after Uncle Ho on hot days like this.
