The inception of this miracle garden was formed under an agreement between the Dubai Properties Group and Dubailand.

The first phase of this wonderful project was completed at the beginning of the year 2013. A total of 21000 sq. feet of area was worked upon and horizontal and vertical landscape designs were carved out. It took approximately 400 workers and 2 months to complete the first phase of this project. The work on the second phase began in June 2013. It took approximately four months to complete phase 2. 850000 sq. feet of area was devoted to multi-level car parking. Phase 2 development even added retail stores, butterfly garden, and mosque to this awe-inspiring project. The total size of the garden has now been increased to more than million square feet.
The operations of the Dubai Miracle Garden are confined only from October to April. The garden remains closed from the month of June to September. This is because the excruciatingly high temperatures (of more than 40 degrees) make flower gazing a difficult job. The flowers are usually maintained by some highly advanced irrigation techniques. Wastewater is re-used through the drip irrigation technique. Approximately 757000 liters of water is spent daily on watering the plants.
