With Mt. Daisen, a tall and beautiful mountain, as a borrowed landscape, this is one of the largest flower parks in Japan where visitors can enjoy seasonal flowers.
The main flower is the lily, with more than 100 varieties displayed throughout the year. Nearly half of the world's lily varieties are cultivated here, and all 15 species of lilies native to Japan, including the "Ukeyuri,(Lilium alexandrae）" also known as the "phantom lily," are on display at this valuable facility.
The on-season is from mid-May to mid-August when about 80,000 lilies are fully blooming.
The vast 50-hectare site includes the Flower Dome, a huge glass greenhouse 50 meters in diameter and 21 meters high, a covered observation corridor 1 km in circumference and 25 meters above the ground, a water flower bed, and the European Garden. The Flower Dome boasts more than 500 magnificent orchid plants, including palm trees and other tropical and subtropical plants.
"Moonlight Flower Garden" is held on weekends in May and August. In addition, "Flower Illumination" will be turned on from mid-November. This illumination, which is one of the largest in the Chugoku and Shikoku regions, offers a romantic night time garden experience. It creates a fantastic space lit up with 14,000 lights that are inspired by moonlight.
