[Tagging] Decorative flower fields? (not as a crop?)

[tomoya muramoto]

I want to use natural=flowerbed (or another tag which will be agreed here)
to a flower field grown naturally (not planted by man). Is it appropriate?

Some natural flower field (for example Katakuri or Mizubasho flower) are
famous in Japan. They are usually protected but not planted.
It's happy for me if I can map them.
