In a section of Tokyo called Horikiri there is a famous garden of irises (堀切菖蒲園). The flowers in this garden were pictured in ukiyo-e as one of One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (produced in 1857 by Hiroshige Utagawa). We hold an iris festival there for about three weeks in June (during a rainy season). You can see 200 different varieties of iris, or 6000 iris plants in this garden.
