Immediately after the launch ceremonies, officials, youth union members, armed forces personnel, and local residents planted thousands of trees, responding to the early-spring tree-planting movement aimed at enhancing green, clean, and beautiful landscapes while improving the ecological environment.
According to the Ha Tinh Sub-Department of Forest Protection, the province aims to plant more than 2.2 million trees of various species in 2026, with nearly 1 million trees expected to be planted during the Lunar New Year period alone.
In neighboring Nghe An, the provincial Sub-Department of Forest Protection said the locality is striving to plant over 9 million trees this year, including more than 2 million during the Lunar New Year campaign.
Trees are being planted primarily along traffic corridors, in residential areas, public spaces, office compounds, schools, healthcare facilities, cultural sites, historical relics, martyrs’ cemeteries, parks, tourist destinations, and hilly or mountainous areas.
Species selected for planting include African mahogany, ironwood, Magnolia balansae, giant crepe-myrtle, white thingan, dragon plum, agarwood, whistling pine, acacia, coconut, Indian redwood, jackfruit, and mango, among others.
