Comes March, comes grapefruit flower season. These days, grapefruit flower baskets appear on Hanoi’s streets.
For many years, this woman has sat in the corner of Hang Khoai Street to sell offering flowers.
These days, she also sells grapefruit flowers.
Grapefruit flowers are rustic but have a dominant fragrance.
Mrs. Thu sells bunches of grapefruit flowers while others sell grapefruit flowers in weight, about VND100,000-VND150,000/kg ($5-7).
Hanoians usually buy grapefruit flowers to offer to their ancestors and to boil to shampoo their hair.
Every March, Hanoians who settle far from the homeland miss the scents of grapefruit flowers.
Dien is the famous pomelo growing land of Hanoi. Coming here in March, visitors will smell the sweet scent of grapefruit flowers everywhere.
