Wisteria garden (Manyou-botanical garden,Nara)

I went to Manyou-Botanical Garden in Nara today.This botanical garden is located near Kasuga-taisha shrine.
In May,Wisteria is in full bloom here,
many tourists visit here to enjoy beautiful garden.
Wisteria has been like a symbol flower of Kasuga-Taisha,since ancient times.
There are more than 10 species of wisteria here.
I uploaded the scene on YouTube;

Usually Japanese iris blooms in June.
It is too early now.
