Streets of Pyongyang have been decorated with flowers this spring giving out fragrance.
Among them are marigold, Viola tricolor, French marigold and hyosong flower.
It is attributable to the devotion of people in the landscaping sector in the capital city who devote their wisdom and passion to making Pyongyang full of the scents of flowers.
In fact, it is not that easy to make streets of Pyongyang covered with blooming flowers from spring to autumn.
But they strive to decorate streets with flowers in a distinctive way in each season in keeping with the layout of green areas and surrounding environment of streets, ensure the vivid colour of flowers and grow them larger.
There are times when they make night journeys to secure new species of young flowering plants and gather fallen leaves needed for the production of humus near the park when others take a stroll there whispering happiness.
Despite biting cold, they would rush to the greenhouse at midnight worrying about young flowering plants or sometimes they make soil fertile all day long.
“Whenever people are happy to see full-blown flowers in streets, we feel pride in our work and we would start working with a light heart even though it was difficult,” said Jang Song Hui, manageress of the Taedonggang District Floricultural Farm in Pyongyang.
Given that the farm cultivates low-, medium- and high-temperature flowers separately, it ensures appropriate temperatures in the greenhouse, chooses right places for cultivation to suit the specific features of each species, increases the rooting rate of flowers and healthily grows them by controlling necessary light, temperature and humidity, applying nutrient solution and watering and preventing damage by insects as required by technical regulations.
The Pothonggang District Floricultural Farm operates non-heating greenhouse effectively while watering plants on a regular basis by increasing the utilization rate of automatic sprinkling system which was introduced into outdoor fields.
The Mangyongdae District Floricultural Farm works harder to produce effective fertilizer for the cultivation of flowers and enhances the technical knowledge and skills of employees to increase the output of flowers five times so as to unfold conspicuous landscape in all parts of Kwangbok Street.
Thanks to such efforts of employees in floricultural farms of all districts, dozens of flowers which are of great ornamental value and dried flowers also decorated the streets of the capital city even on cold February days this year.
