DSC06464RS'G.jpg Japanese iris is at its best when we hear that about 1,000 plants are planted in three places near the Hanagien Garden, the Yan Liao Museum, and the middle gate.

It is a perennial plant of the iris family, one of the Japanese classical horticultural plants that has been crossed and improved based on wild Nohanashobu, and has produced many varieties. It is often confused with taro shobu, but Japanese iris is also referred to as iris flowers and shobu is also referred to as iris grass.

In general, in addition to the Naga Igo species, which strongly retains the characteristics of ancestor, the Edo, Ise, and Higo families, the flower color is abundant in white, light red, purple, blue, and yellow, and there aredouble-flowered and lions.

The elegant flower shape and moist atmosphere are attractive.
