appearance and fragrance, and are cultivated in a number of locations in Koshigaya City.
The Chrysanthemum was chosen as the result of public submissions, and was designated as
the official flower of Koshigaya City on November 3, 1978, to mark the 20th anniversary of the
city's formation.

The Zelkovia - Tree of Koshigaya City

The Zelkova, or Keyaki in Japanese, is a deciduous tree of the family Ulmaceae.
Zelkova trees thrive in the natural conditions of the Musashino Area (the central and western
parts of the Tokyo Metropolitan Area and the southern part of Saitama Prefecture), and since times
past have been considered characteristic of the area's scenery. Again, there are many zelkova trees
growing in Koshigaya City, and with its trunk standing straight and tall and widely spreading branches,
the Zelkova is a fitting symbol of the continuously developing city that is Koshigaya.
