I live in a condo, so I can't be getting an actual peach blossom tree. But I'd like to order a 3 to 5 foot branch with pink flowers for Chinese New Year. (It's like Christmas tree for Chinese new year. I sadly never had one growing up!) Looked at few Chinese malls/flower shop last year and found nothing.

My dad was looking for one and ended up making his own. He found an old, well-shaped tree branch with many little branches and bought the silk peach blossom branches. He took each blossom and wrapped them on the natural tree by hand. It looked amazing when he was done!
I think peach blossom branches with silk flowers can be found online, so if you're feeling crafty, you could do the same.

I would call and check with Angelo's Garden Centre. They're closer to Woodbridge but usually have a good selection of those sorts of things.

The craft idea of making your own peach blossom branches sounds good! A fake branch would save on cleanup afterwards unless you want to be vacuuming bark bits.
Maybe in peach season, see if you can get a real branch section from a fruit farmer and find out how to preserve it so that it's always ready for the New Year celebrations.2021-Bring on the sunshine, sweets & online shopping.
