Herbs, mainly herbs, came from China and flourished during the Edo period, and it was said that it developed into natural science toward modern times.

Morino Former Yakuen is the oldest private physic garden in Japan.

In this exhibition, we will introduce Morino's former Yakuen, as well as about 90 actual materials about the changes in the main plant charts drawn from the early to late Edo period and the transition of herbalism to modern botany.

I am surprised by the beauty of the color of the plant score and the detailed brushwork.
