Unlike the potted orchid lilies often seen in gardens, the pink trumpet tree is a tall, woody species typically planted along streets. Originating from the Americas, this flower - also known as the pink bell flower - has been widely grown in Vietnam’s Mekong Delta. It usually blooms from February to June. When in full blossom, most of its leaves fall away, leaving behind clusters of soft pink and light purple flowers that create a gentle, romantic scene under the sun.

On the afternoon of August 20, Hue City Center for Culture, Information, and Sports in collaboration with the Colors of the Mekong Delta ART club opened a fine arts exhibition themed “Colors of the Mekong Delta” 2024.
