It was cloudy on this day, but for a moment, the light came in and the fantastic scenery spread. Every year in late September, more than 3 million red spider liliies grown by local people bloom all at once along the Yakachi River embankment for about 1.5 km, and the entire area is covered with a bright red carpet. It is named after the description written in the fairy tale "Gongitsune" that "the higan flower is blooming like a red cloth". It all started with planting red spider liliies bulbs at the suggestion of Daizo Oguri, who had played with the creator Nankichi Niimi as a child.

Nishiokoppe, Hokkaido

Guided stroll through the Flower Park Roadside Station Nishiokoppe Kamu features an attached Flower Park. On Saturday, September 23, we held an event in which participants explored the grounds with a gardener guide. This event has run for about five years, and this year’s edition invited visitors to enjoy the autumn natural garden. Autumn blooms such as asters, persicaria, and fujibakama (Eupatorium) add color to the park. It’s not only the flowers—apparently the trees and shrubs are grown with great care, and spots where grasses of different hues stand side by side are especially striking. I was surprised that about three people maintain the large Flower Park, and I’m excited to see how the plants planted in recent years will look five or ten years from now. The Flower Park remains open through October. Why not come and relax among the plants as you refresh from your travels?
