The Osaka Prefectural Flower Culture Garden in Kawachinagano City, Osaka Prefecture, is currently seeing its spring roses in full bloom. The garden features all varieties inducted into the World Federation of Rose Societies' Hall of Fame. The rose garden is a symmetrical sunken garden, allowing visitors to view the entire area from the entrance terrace, with special sections for 'blue roses' and 'roses bred in Japan.' The peak season is typically from mid-May to mid-June, with about 500 varieties and 1,500 rose bushes in bloom.
The garden offers a wide range of roses, from fragrant Old Roses to elegant Modern Roses, with approximately 150 varieties and 300 bushes classified as 'strongly fragrant.'
