Since roses thrive in full sun, parasols are a good idea!

The Rose Lawn at Nozuta park in Machida is well worth visiting if you enjoy roses. The large collection includes old roses, hybrid tea roses, miniature and shrub roses, floribunda roses and climbing roses. The garden is open from 6am to 8pm, and admission is free. If you go at the end of May, as I did, you will surely see it at its best.
