Featured in the mural are enlarged versions of the flowers typical to Hanoi, such as pink lotuses, white Easter lilies, orange gladioli, violets, dahlia and chrysanthemum, as well as flowers originating from Da Lat such as crane flowers and echeveria.

The vibrant flower garden on the long wall is also embellished with different shades of green leaves and the various colours of plants such as purple secretia, taro, umbrella palm, sago palm and toucan peak.

Painter Nguyen Thu Thuy, Director of the New Hanoi Arts Group, stated that “I’m very happy to see the kids rushing to the mural after school and asking one another the names of the flowers and plants on the mural.”
