Ashikaga Flower Park features lots of blue, white and pink wisteria, as well as yellow laburnum (Japanese: kingusari) that resemble yellow wisteria. The park contains three massive wisteria trellises that extend for more than 1000 square meters. One of the trees is 100 years old and its branches create a huge umbrella of blue wisteria flowers.
There is also an 80-meter tunnel of white wisteria flowers, while a tunnel of yellow laburnum still needs a couple more years to develop into a tunnel. Yae-fuji, a variety with more than the usual number of petals, can also be seen.
Besides the wisteria, you will find many other flowers, restaurants and a shop that sells plants and local products. There are no English descriptions and very few foreign visitors. The entrance fee depends on the season's beauty and is around 1000 Yen per adult during the wisteria peak season.
The wisteria in Ashikaga Flower Park are usually in full bloom at the beginning of May, one to two weeks later than those found at Tokyo. Because Ashikaga Flower Park is considered one of the best spots to view fuji flowers in Japan, the park can get very crowded even on weekdays during the peak season.
