    “What a pity. I didn’t have a chance to stop by the city of yellow apricot blossoms (ochna integerrima) for a check-in.” It was a message I received from a tourist acquaintance when she and her family just had a north-south backpacking trip after a long ceasing time due to Covid-19.

    According to the elders of Dien Hoa Commune (Phong Dien), the traditional profession of growing apricot flower trees started when some inhabitants of the village worked as royal officials in the Imperial City and brought the yellow apricot blossom seedlings to the village. The village has later developed into the apricot blossom village of Dien Hoa.
