As you can see from 0:58, the Sera Kogen Farm grows more than 750,000 tulips of 300 varieties on its 65,000 square meter tulip farm. We recommend going to see "Hanae," which occurs when the tulips bloom. It's a superb view created by planting different varieties of plants in certain areas to create images in the fields. This can be seen at 1:19 in the video.

The sunflower field, which is as large as the tulip field, is planted with 1.1 million sunflowers of 50 varieties, and the Sunflower Festival is held every summer during the blooming season.
There are also dahlia in autumn.
There are 550 varieties of dahlias of all shapes and sizes, but the most spectacular are the gigantic flowers, which are over 30 cm in diameter.
In addition, they cultivate different seasonal flowers such as cherry blossoms, moss phlox, roses, nemophilia, and poppies.
