Ashikaga flowers park

Ashikaga flowers park is located in the city of the same name in the Japanese province of tochigi on the island of Hongsu. The park takes about 8.2 hectares and is famous for a variety of types of wisteria (in Japanese its name sounds like Fuji).
It is impossible to go past a new selection of photos from this garden.
Glycinium is a genus of high tree -curly subtropical plants from the bean family with large brushes of fragrant flowers. Wisteria flowers – white, blue, purple or purple – are similar to moths. Gathered in large hanging brushes, they look extremely impressive against the background of thick foliage. The fragrant bunches of lilac glycine resemble our white acacia, our spring southern streets and all the good things that are connected with this.
In the ASIKAG flowers park, there are especially many blue, white and pink wisteria, as well as a yellow shell (on Japanese: Kingusari), which look like yellow glycines.
The flow of flowers, as a rule, is in full flowering in early May, two weeks later than the flowering of wisteria in Tokyo passes. Asikaga is considered one of the best places for viewing flowering wisteria in Japan, the flowers in the park are planted very closely and create very beautiful and bizarre compositions.
The park has a 100-year wisteria, 160 wisteria, which is about 60 years old, and 1,500 azalia, which are more than 60 years old.
For a centenary glycin in the park, a frame was created to support a huge umbrella of purple-blue colors (wisteria is a vine and is very well formed). There is also a long tunnel of white wisteria, and the Kingusari yellow tunnel will need many more years to become an actual tunnel (so far it is like a canopy).
Wisteria (Wisteria) is a liana who prefers to wrap himself around the supports. The support can serve as another tree, an arbor, a wall of the building. Glycinia blooms with large hanging clusters that emit a sweet, unique aroma. It attracts insects, especially bees. Flowering of wisteria is a truly amazing sight!
Do you know what the Fuji Japanese call? Except for the sacred Fuji? It turns out that the name of wonderful colors that we are used to calling wisteria sounds so on the Japanese. It would seem that in a country where many people huddle in apartments with an area of several square meters, where industry is so developed, there is no place for gardens and parks. But no. Despite everything, the Japanese sacredly honor traditions. One of the most beautiful is the admiration of flowering trees … And one of the places where you can come to touch the beautiful is Ashikaga Flower Park.
The waterfall rushes down the long brushes of her fragrant colors – white, purple, purple, pink, blue and yellow clusters on a green background of leaves are an amazing sight. There are several thousand wisteria in the park. Many of them are already “in years” – in the park of Asikaga you can see wisteria, which have been more than a century! It is already hard for such “old women” to stand – so the designers designed special frames for huge flower hats of magnificent vines. There are four such arbors.
The 80-meter tunnel made of white wisteria also causes unchanged exclamations of admiration. Snow -white brushes with flowers similar to tiny butterflies, and a sweet delicate aroma – not without reason the Japanese call a passage along the tunnel of the expensive happiness.
In February -March, drain blooms here, a little later, daffodils, tulips, hyacinths and muskari appear – the first messengers of spring. In April and May, the garden flashes a fantastic multi -colored fireworks of thousands of rhododendrons and azalea.
From May to June and the whole fall, the garden is filled with an aroma of 1,500 roses.
Summer is the time of hydrangeas, clematis, petunias, irises and lupins. And the purple flowers of Sharfran finish the season in late autumn … The garden falls asleep to meet the guests again – an endless story of beauty and perfection.
