Recycling Tips
Prior to delivering the peach blossom trees, please be reminded to remove all Fai-chun, decorations, tapes, etc. to facilitate
subsequent recycling processes.
The present recycling service targets specifically on peach blossom trees. For other small potted plants (such as kumquat
trees), we encourage the public to replant such potted plants and store the festive decorations for reuse in other occasions, in order to reduce waste and save resources.
