‘Cuc hoa mi’, also known as ‘wild daises’ feature fragile white petals covering the yellow pistil. Different from the flowers with vibrant colours, daisies boast a pristine beauty, bringing lightness and peace to people.
According to the municipal Department of Science and Technology, pure-white daisies are often grown in the capital city of Ha Noi. The Biotechnology Centre has piloted to grow this beautiful flower type on a garden with a total of 10,000 plants.
