加茂花菖蒲園, Botanical garden in Kamo, Japan.

Kamo Iris Garden is a botanical garden located near Kamo that spreads across a large area and houses thousands of plant species. The focus centers on iris flowers and aquatic plants arranged throughout different zones of the grounds.

The garden was founded in 1957 and developed into a center for iris cultivation and conservation. It became significant in advancing botanical research and preservation efforts across Japan.

The garden blends traditional Japanese design principles with scientific plant organization, creating a space where visitors experience both artistic landscape arrangement and botanical learning. This combination reflects how local people approach the study and enjoyment of nature.

The grounds are open daily and visitors can explore the pathways independently to visit different plant areas. It is wise to wear comfortable shoes and allow plenty of time, since the property is expansive and easy to lose track of direction.

The site runs specialized breeding programs for various iris varieties and maintains knowledge about plant propagation that few places possess. This work transforms the location into far more than a visitor destination, functioning as a living research center.
