herry blossoms in our garden typically begin blooming in early to mid-April and reach full bloom about a week later.
They can usually be enjoyed from mid-April through late April.
Because the garden is located at a higher elevation than the plains of the Kanto region, the cherry blossoms tend to bloom about 2–3 weeks later than in Tokyo and surrounding areas.
Several varieties of cherry trees grow throughout the garden, each blooming at slightly different times, allowing visitors to enjoy cherry blossoms for an extended period.
Blooming times vary each year depending on weather conditions.
The latest updates are shared on our website and Instagram.
Autumn colors usually begin from mid-October to late October and can be enjoyed until mid- to late November.
Due to the garden’s higher elevation, the autumn foliage often begins slightly earlier than in the Kanto plains.
