But whatever these festivals are, the most common things that bind them are; Public Holidays and "Open House" Concept.

Some folks (person who gives me seeds) call it Hàm Hương, meaning the " latent fragrance) because the flowers do not have any scent.

The rise of English as a global language has led individuals from English speaking countries to take the language for granted.
