Higashimokoto Phlox Park (ひがしもこと芝桜公園) ひがしもこと芝桜公園
Pink phlox over 10 hectares of hillside: you only pay to enter during the bloom.
The park, in the town of Ozora (Okhotsk region, far from Sapporo), is one of the largest phlox fields in Japan, run by a dedicated company (東藻琴芝桜公園管理公社). Paid entry applies only when the bloom reaches at least 30% (三分咲き): for the rest of the year the area remains a public park with only its service facilities.
