The onion of Lilium amabile is egg-shaped to round, white, 3 to 4 centimeters high and has a diameter of 2.5 to 3 centimeters. The numerous close-fitting scales are lanceolate to lanceolate-egg-shaped, tapering to a point, around 4 inches long and around 2.5 inches wide. The plant reaches a stature height of 40 to 100 centimeters, the dark green, rooted stem is cylindrical in cross section and covered with white, firm and short hair.
The sessile, three- to multi-veined leaves are narrowly lanceolate, tapering to a point or slightly blunt and are spread horizontally to slightly hanging scattered in the upper two thirds of the stem.

They are 3.5 to 5.5 centimeters long, those of the outer petal circle are lanceolate and 8 to 10 millimeters, those of the inner lanceolate-ovate and 1.4 to 1.6 centimeters wide. The nectar gutter is papilous and around 2 centimeters long.
The stamens are shorter than the bracts, the stamens smooth and awl-shaped, the anthers chocolate brown and the pollen vermilion.
