What is Oga Lotus?

Oga lotus (lotus) is a lotus that blooms during the Jomon period, when the late Dr. Ichiro Oga (then professor at Kanto Gakuin University), who was known as the lotus doctor, studied at the Kemigawa Kosei Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tokyo in Chiba City in 1951. It is said that he discovered three ancient lotus seeds and succeeded in flowering one of them.
This Oga lotus was cultivated in an aquarium with Oga lotus seeds and lotus roots donated by the late Mr. Masafumi Kato (Katsuta Town) around the beginning of the Heisei era.
The lotus was transplanted into the inner moat to commemorate the 670th anniversary of the construction of Tamaru Castle.
