Irises in Hamana Lake Flower Garden in Hamamatsu Ciy!

We spent no less than 4 hours inside the enormous Flower Garden in Hamamatsu city and took more than 180 picture!
I am not going to complete as this allows me to write a series of articles on different themes!
I have already published five articles about about various attractions.
It is about time we concentrate on the flowers!
here are the various irises I discovered there.
Incidentally, they are called Ayame/菖蒲 which is usually translated as “Sberian Iris”, but I can imagine there more names according to the many varieties!
