As March arrives and temperatures rise, the riverside of Hongshui River in Hechi's Tian'e county is filled with the blossoming of kapok flowers, as if sensing the breath of spring, local media outlets reported on March 19.

This kapok flow, known as the "hero flower," once in full bloom, displays a splendid yet not gaudy appearance, exuding a vibrant and positive vitality beloved by all. The bright red kapok flowers sway in the wind, attracting squirrels and bees to forage and frolic among them, creating a lively and animated sight.
