Mount Saga
is a mountain located on the border of Futtsu and Kyonan, Chiba Prefecture. Mount Saga has an elevation of and is one of the peaks of the Mineoka Mountain District of the Bōsō Hill Range. ==Narcissus cultivation==
Mount Saga is home to one of the largest areas of narcissus flower cultivation in Japan.〔(嵯峨山 )〕 The flowers are grown in terraced plots along the slopes of the mountain, mostly those facing Kyonan. The plantings are primarily of the ''Nihon'' variety of narcissus, which probably originated in south China and came to Japan via the Kuroshio Current.〔(嵯峨山の日本水仙 )〕 Mount Saga has been used for narcissus cultivation from at least the Edo period 1603–1868. The daimyō Matsudaira Sadanobu (1759–1829), administrator of Shirakawa Domain in present-day Fukushima Prefecture, visited the area in 1811 and noted the mountain and its narcissus cultivation in his diary.〔(嵯峨山 )〕 Cultivation has spread to the peak of Mount Saga. The Japanese word for narcissus is ''suisen'', and the summit of Mount Saga is known as Suisen Peak. The mountain is a popular hiking destination from late December to early February when the narcissus bloom.〔
