◆Toyooka Iris Garden◆

The Iris Garden is located on a Takadai hill overlooking the Central Alps in the middle of the river terrace.

I had been growing various flowers as part of my hobby since around 1938, but when I Visiting the site of the Lauris Garden in Aoki Village, I became fascinated by the variety of irises such as color, size, and shape of the irises cultivation there, and I started purchasing bulbs. Later, as the number of cultivation varieties exceeded 100, the planting space became too small, so it was relocated to the current farmland of 30 acres.
　
There was a request from the village to open the park as a tourist park, and in 2002 I obtained a qualification as a landscaping coordinator, and in 2003 I started Open to the public as an iris garden.
　
Iris Cultivation is a plant that does not like high temperatures and humidity, and there are many occurrences of diseases, and it is difficult to manage because it needs to be replanted and replaced once every three years, but we continue to Cultivation that it would be nice if people who visit it could feel peace when they see the flowers blooming at the end.
　
Currently, about 5,000 irises of more than 200 species and more than 300 species of Flowers in addition to irises are in bloom, making it a spectacular flower garden.
