A worker checks the growth of flowers at a planting base in Kunming, southwest China's Yunnan Province, Nov. 25, 2024. Yunnan, a leading supplier of flowers for lunar new year decoration, has recently witnessed the start of annual peak season. These flowers, popular around the spring festival period (usually from early December to the Lantern Festival of the next year), are not only sold across the country, but also to overseas markets such as Japan and Russia.
