How to Choose and Preserve Apricot Flowers

1. How to Choose Apricot Flowers

When choosing apricot flowers for ornamental purposes, it is important to consider the following:

  • Choose small pots of apricots with healthy and well-developed branches for tabletop or altar display.
  • For displaying in the living room, opt for larger pots of apricots with branches divided into layers. Look for strong and flexible branches, evenly spread flowers, big buds, and young leaves.

Youthful Green or Burgundy Leaves

Choose apricots with a few young green leaves or red leaves, as they signify good luck for the new year.

For Apricot Pots

To keep your apricot flowers fresh for a longer time during New Year’s Day, follow these steps:

  • Between December 12-15, pick apricot leaves or spray them with water to keep them fresh.
  • On the 23rd of Tet, small buds will start to appear.
  • By the 27th of Tet, when the apricots begin to bloom (about 5%-10%), spray them with a multi-micronutrient compound called GA-3. This will help the flowers stay fresh for 10-15 days.
