Every year, the Calla Lily Season attracts over 600,000 visitors to admire the flowers, but after May, calla lily production dwindles as the plants enter their summer dormancy period. They are then succeeded by hydrangeas, which remain in bloom until the end of June. During this time, visitors can head to various hydrangea gardens around Zhuzihu to enjoy the flowers and take photos. Some farms also allow visitors to pick the flowers—be sure to check with the farm beforehand.

The hydrangea fields in Zhuzihu cover approximately 5 hectares, featuring 7 to 8 varieties in a wide range of colors—including pure white, pink with red edges, pink, purplish-red, light blue, and blue. Both large-flowered and medium-flowered varieties are planted throughout the farms. Local farmers also note that due to more stable weather conditions this year compared to last, the blooms are even more vibrant, with richly layered colors that make them perfect for memorable photos.
