Vietnam 2024 Floral Seasons in Hanoi

The flowers introduced in the stamp set are adapted from the lyrics of the song Hanoi's 12 flower seasons, a composition by musician Giang Son.

The first stamp set with the theme "Hanoi's 12 flower seasons" was released on April 26, 2014.  The stamp set was designed by artist Nguyen Quang Vinh in a graphic style. 

The peach blossom stamp set costs 4.000 VND.  Peach blossom is a symbolic flower of spring in the North and in January and around Tet. Peaches come in many colors, but the most famous in Nhat Tan peach village is the peach blossom, a type of peach that blooms with large, multi-layered petals and has a beautiful red mixed with lotus pink color. 

The Hoa Ban stamp set costs 6.000 VND.

In February, Hanoi is dyed by the dreamy purple color of ban flowers. Although the ban flower is not a native flower of Hanoi, it is a flower of the Northwest region, but when grown in Hanoi, the pale pink petals mixed with the purple petals look like the "hearts" of the flower. Highland ethnic people head towards the Capital. Every season when the banyan flowers bloom, the whole long street seems to be dyed purple. 

The Sua flower stamp set costs 10.500 VND.

In March, the whole of Hanoi awakens with the white color of sua flowers, clusters of pure white sua flowers stand out among the green buds, Hanoi suddenly becomes more sparkling, more dreamy each season of sua flowers blooming. When the sua flowers fall, the fragile white petals fly away, creating white carpeted streets like in a fairy tale, making Hanoi's old town more romantic.
