Pink lilies, which originate from the Americas, are also known as pink bellflowers. The flowers have a pinkish-purple heart color like cherry blossoms, the flowering season usually blooms in February and lasts until about June every year.
Pink lilies are almost bell-shaped, growing in clusters of 4-7 flowers. Usually, when the tree flowers, most of the leaves fall, on the top of each branch, only the flower clusters look very cute.
This flower usually blooms for about 3-4 days and then falls off, at this time the ground will also be filled with petals that look like pink carpets.
