SHANGRALA'S
ASHIKAGA
FLOWER
PARK!
Ashikaga Flower Park, in Japan's Tochigi Province, is famous for various kinds of
Wisteria. Wisteria is not a tree but a long-lived vining plant with cascades of
blue to purple flowers that look spectacular hanging from a pergola or archway
in spring and early summer.
With a full range of colors on display, Ashikaga Flower Park is stunning no
matter the time of year. Marvel at the orange tulips, blue hydrangeas and the
purple wisterias of one of Tochigi Prefecture's best-kept secrets. Open year-round,
Ashikaga Flower Park is a great place to see the beauty of Tochigi's nature change
with every season. It features a lot of colors of blue, white and pink wisteria
and yellow blooms.
God Gave Us Beautiful Flowers. Enjoy! :)
The Park flowers are usually in full bloom in early May, two weeks later than the
flowering wisteria is in Tokyo. Ashikaga's considered one of the best places to
view the blooming wisteria in Japan. Flowers in the park are planted very close
to each other to create beautiful and intricate compositions.
The Park has a 100 year old wisteria. About 160 wisteria at 60+ years old.
1,500 azaleas or more at more than 60 years old.
For a century the Park created huge wisteria frames to support the massive umbrella
of violet-blue flowers. There's also a long tunnel of white wisteria and yellow
broom kingusari that will take many years to become an actual tunnel.
Since the wisteria vines, park workers didn't miss the opportunity to
create tunnels of these beautiful flowers. One such tunnel is already
open to thousands of visitors with violet-blue colors of these plants.
