As the Chinese Qing Ming Festival is approaching, prices of chrysanthemum, white or yellow, have risen, sources from flower markets in Lhasa. According to a manager of a flower shop, flowers sell well currently as people pay tribute with flowers instead of burning incense, firecracker or paper made to resemble money.

Note: Chinese Qing Ming Festival is a traditional Chinese festival widely practised, when families pay tribute to their ancestors and tend to graves.
