B | 今年6月，大马弄的鲜切荷花上市，随即在杭城掀起一阵逛早市、买荷花的市井浪漫。开卖近三个月，一束束荷花，陪伴许多杭州人和游客度过风雅的夏天。最火爆的时候，巷子里卖荷花的摊位一家接一家，有网友说：整条巷子望过去都是荷花。昨天，记者在大马弄看到，卖荷花的摊位还有五六家，不过荷花的数量比前两个月少了许多。大马弄“双胞胎阿姐店”的夏女士告诉记者，受季节的影响，最近荷花货源明显减少，昨天德清的重瓣荷花只拿到了二三十枝，还有一些是金华的荷花，“今年最高峰的时候一天能卖七千枝荷花，最近大概每天卖千把枝”。夏女士这里，荷花的价格依旧是重瓣10元一枝，单瓣2元一枝，一束荷花搭配下来，大概二三十元。如果赶不及早市的话，下午2点左右还会到货一批荷花，所以下午来的话，依旧能买到。
C | 想来这里买荷花的话，要抓紧了。像夏女士的荷花今年预计卖到9月初，接下来莲蓬、菱角和鲜莲子还会继续售卖，来自德清的水果莲蓬，10元5个，直接剥开就可以吃，清甜脆嫩；老一点的莲子10元一斤，可以用来煮粥煲汤；还有嫩菱角8元一斤，炒菜或直接生吃都可以。
D | 今年夏天火爆的荷花市集，不仅吸引了很多来买荷花的人，还有一批摄影师也因为人气聚集到这里。
E | 张先生是河南人，他说自己之前在苏州拍照，景点、婚礼都拍过，7月底的时候在网上看到杭州大马弄的荷花市集人气特别火爆，就动身来到杭州，每天上午在这里给买荷花的人拍照，价格是20元一张。“大马弄这里的老板都很和气，买荷花的人也很好，来了一个月，生意还算不错。”张先生说，预计等到荷花市集结束，自己也会回到苏州继续拍照。眼见200多米长的大马弄，荷花数量减少，橘子、柿子、石榴、冬枣等带着秋天信号的果蔬上市，好像这个夏日正在以某种方式悄悄拉动自己的进度条。
