HORTICULTURE

Detailed explanation-1: -What is this? Like amaryllis, the belladonna lily is a bulbous perennial that is dormant for part of the season (from spring to summer). In late summer, they produce many large pink and white trumpet-shaped blooms that closely resemble lilies and amaryllis.

Detailed explanation-2: -About Peace Lilies Peace lilies are not true lilies. They are tropical, evergreen plants in the Arum family, native to tropical Central and South America. These plants thrive on the forest floor, where they receive dappled sunlight and consistent moisture and humidity.

Detailed explanation-3: -Many genera are cultivated as ornamentals, such as Lilium (lily), Tulipa (tulip), Hyacinthus (hyacinth), Narcissus (daffodils, narcissus), and Amaryllis. Narcissus and Amaryllis are often put in a segregate family, the Amaryllidaceae.

Detailed explanation-4: -Although amaryllis flowers resemble lilies, they are not even close relatives. The amaryllis plants that we force into bloom belong to the Hippeastrum genus in the Amaryllidaceaefamily. They originated in the tropical areas of South America, thus are tender perennials and grown as houseplants.
