Dubai Miracle Garden overview

The Dubai Miracle Garden is probably the most famous garden in the UAE. The mesmerising garden thrives in its grandeur in Dubai’s most extreme desert climate and is thus called the Miracle Garden.

The premises encompass a variety of prominent floral themes and sculptures. The flowers on display in the garden include Petunias, Geraniums, Marigolds, Sunflowers and plenty more botanic flower arrangements and designs. Petunia flowers comprise 90 per cent of the floral themes in the garden because of their uncanny ability to survive the harshest desert climate in Dubai.
