Festivals have been traditionally held on major occasions including the birthdays of president Kim Il-sung and General Kim Jong Il. Famous horticulturists of home and abroad have participated.

Kimilsungia is a present of the Indonesian President Sukarno in 1975.

Kimjongilia was developed by Kamo Mototeru, manager of the Kamo Iris garden, Japan. He presented the flower on the birthday of Kim Jong Il in 1988. From ten on it has been called as 'an immortal flower' and a 'king of flower'.

Begonia is a very large genus of ca. 1500 species of herbs and subshrubs that occur predominantly in the tropical rainforests of both hemispheres. Unfortunately none of the species on display in the Domes were labelled, so I can't provide names. These photos, taken at the Mitchell Domes (and indoor conservatory) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, show four of the species currently on display.
