Atami Plum Garden or Atami Baien as it is known in Japan is a plum garden with more than 120 years of history in Atami. Mogi Sobei, a silk merchant in Yokohama in 1886, landscaped this garden. In the plum garden, 472 plum trees of 57 varieties are planted. Plums that bloom in the middle of January are abundant as it is said to be “Japan’s fastest bloom”. There are trees such as Nenashi-Ume, Kuyo-Bai, Kanichi and Omiya-no-Ume, each showing different beauty. Plums have different flowering times depending on the species so visitors can enjoy plum blossoms for two months from mid-January to mid-March in the garden.
