You can enjoy seasonal flowers all year round in Japan! As you may know that Japan has four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
When you step into the flower garden, it looks like a fairyland.
Even in places where green leaves are usually overgrown, when the flowering season comes, the whole area is filled with flowers and the wonderful scenery spreads. The flower can continue to bloom beautifully for several weeks a year. It is wonderful to choose a sightseeing area to see the spectacular view! There are many famous flower spots all over the country, so let's introduce some typical flowers that can be enjoyed in order from spring.

[Spring March - May]
In the spring, the buds that slept during the cold winter season will bloom. Speaking of spring, "Hanami", where you can see the cherry blossoms blooming, is especially famous. Hanami means that cherry-blossom viewing and drinking, eating, and having fun under the cherry blossoms. Hanami is written in Chinese characters as "seeing flowers", but Japanese people who like cherry blossoms can see the fact that only seeing cherry blossoms is specially called cherry blossom viewing. Hanami is famous all over the country, especially in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Nara where you can see a variety of cherry blossom trees.
After the cherry blossoms fall, many flowers, such as tulips, wisteria, azaleas, nemophila, moss phlox, roses, etc., bloom from April to May! You can enjoy a bunch of flowers by visiting each flower garden. The flowers will spread under your eyes like a beautiful landscape, and will surely fill your heart.

[Summer June - August]
After spring, the rainy season comes to Japan. It is a time when the number of rainy days increases from June to early July. Of course, you don't want rain when you go to travel, but hydrangea blooms at this time. It is also an elegant time to spend a quiet and relaxing day watching the hydrangeas getting wet in the rain. For example, Kamakura and Hakone are famous hydrangea spots in Japan.
When the summer comes in late July, the sunflowers are full of bloom. Stretching steadily toward the sun and straying into a sunflower field about the height of a person, you will feel as if you were in a painting or movie.

[Autumn September - November]
Cosmos blooms from September to October, roses bloom from October to November, and in November you can enjoy the autumn leaves of maple leaves and ginkgo leaves. Many maples and ginkgo are planted in gardens and parks, so you can enjoy walking along the roadside without going to the flower garden. The trees and fallen leaves dyed in yellow and red tell the coming of winter with the excitement of the beauty of natural colors. As a tourist spot, Kyoto's autumn leaves are especially famous, and many people go out to see the bright red color.

[Winter December - Feburary]
During the cold winter months, the leaves of the trees fall and the variety of flowers decreases. Only the branches wait for the coming of spring to survive the cold and lead to the next life. From January to February, the buds of the plum finally begin to blossom. In February, when the early blooming cherry blossoms and rape blossoms begin to bloom, the color of the flowers, which had only branches and leaves, began to appear little by little, and you could gradually feel the mood of spring.

So, you can enjoy various flowers throughout the year in the four seasons. Why don't you find your favorite flower and visit the flower garden for the flowering time?
