Coming up roses in Japan


Tens of thousands gather for a rose and gardening show on the outskirts of Tokyo.

An estimated 250,000 visitors are expected to visit the Tenth International Rose and Gardening Show over five days. The rose does not have a long history in Japan compared to the chrysanthemum or the cherry blossom, which are Japan's "national flowers", but its popularity is definitely blooming!
