As a market, Baoshan Flower Street was formed in Xianfeng period of Qing Dynasty and has a history of 100 years. For thousands of years, Baoshan people have formed the custom of nourishing feelings with flowers and prospering the city with flowers. Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, every household in the city wraps palm seeds to pay homage to the patriotic poet Qu Yuan. In the streets of the city, all kinds of flowers, grass, birds, fish, lights, medicinal materials, snacks, local products and so on. Competing for the market, let a hundred flowers blossom. Everyone gathers in the market to watch the transaction, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger every year. Historical reappearance, planting, raising and catching flowers in Duanyang has become a traditional festival for Baoshan people.

Especially after the reform and opening up, everything in Baoshan has flourished, not only the traditional flower street, but also the commodity trading during the flower street. Naturally, every Duanyang Festival, or organized by the government or the masses spontaneously, people consciously put their own flowers and bonsai at the door of the store, and Baoshan Flower Street has become a grand festival for Baoshan people.
