Chrysanthemum Exhibition at Yokohama Children's Botanical Garden

About This Event

Potted large- and small-flowered chrysanthemums displayed in a tent

Yokohama Children's Botanical Garden in Minami-ku, Yokohama, opened in 1979 (the International Year of the Child) on the former research site of geneticist Hitoshi Kihara, known for his wheat research. The 3.0-hectare garden includes flower beds, a rose garden, a wildflower garden, an orchard, a bamboo garden, a flowering-tree garden, a hedge garden, and a medicinal-herb garden. Each autumn it holds a chrysanthemum show, displaying potted large- and small-flowered chrysanthemums in a tent in front of the management office. Open 9:00am-4:30pm, free admission.
