The pink trumpet flower has a shape similar to the royal poinciana flower, but the petals are thinner and softer. Every March, when the weather enters the dry season, the tree sheds its leaves, leaving clusters of flowers blooming on the branches, creating a unique beauty. Although it only blooms for a few short weeks, the pink trumpet flower still leaves a deep impression on the hearts of the people of Ho Chi Minh City.

The pink trumpet flower originates from America, also known as the pink bell flower, and has been experimentally grown in Ho Chi Minh City since 2009. The pink trumpet flower has a color similar to cherry blossoms, blooming in April and lasting until June.

Trumpet roses have many different names such as bell roses, trumpet roses, and pink roses. When in season, the flowers bloom in clusters, the leaves fall off, leaving behind light pink flowers hanging heavy on the branches, making many people think of cherry blossoms.

The pink trumpet flower only blooms for 3-4 days and then quickly falls off.
