All Flowers Islet is in the center of East Lake. It formerly consisted of three islets, and now two of them are in August 1 Park. The name of All Flowers Islet was derived from a poem chanting the praise of Yuzhang by a certain poet in the Song Dynasty. In the 11th year of the reign of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty (1746 AD), Peng Jiaping, governor of Jiangxi Province, wrote the words "All Flowers Islet", and ordered a tablet set up with the words on it. "The Night Moon Over East Lake" and "Spring Vegetables in the Supu Garden", two of the "Ten Sceneries of Yuzhang", can be seen on this islet.
