Traditionally, Can Tho people have had a hobby of planting flowers and ornamental plants for a long time. Nearly all people from almost all households either in the countryside or in the city know how to plant flowers and enjoy their natural beauty. Enjoying the beauty of ornamental plants is seen as an exotic aspect of the South. Moreover, this is also a form of folk art demonstrating the unique national culture.

Going along the cement roads, we are surprised to see houses filled with yellow marigold. Here, any household has its own flower garden. Some families consider planting flowers for business; some others do it just for following the tradition of their ancestors, and they regard it as a "nice hobby" and a beauty that becomes the village’s special feature. People here are very happy and enthusiastic. Maybe due to this, their flowers become the most beautiful in the region. Their traditional products are marigolds, daisies, Dahlia, apricot of all types. To better serve the people’s demands of enjoying the beautiful flowers, Thoi Nhut Flower Village nowadays has developed many new species which are imported and unique.
