Ashigaka Flower Park
About
Located in Tochigi, Japan, the Ashikaga Flower Park is home to a 160+ year old Great Wisteria tree, often dubbed as "the most beautiful wisteria in the world". Because of its age and number of blooms, the branches are supported by gridded beams, and form a stunning flower umbrella. The park itself has over 350 wisteria trees, which bloom from mid-April to mid-May.
