A Persian garden brings to mind a garden of exotic design, with flowers common to the Near East and a tranquil spot for a picnic. Persian gardens date back at least four thousand years and the Avestan word "pairi daeza" which means 'enclosed garden' gives us the modern word paradise. Avestan was the language used in eastern Iran (modern day Afghanistan) during that period. Since that time, Persian gardens have become popular and can be found throughout major cities in Iran. For example, the city of Shiraz, located in central Iran, is renowned for its beautiful rose gardens.

Traditionally, the Persian garden is a square or rectangular area divided into quarters with a central water source in the center. This water source would then split off into four channels or canals down the length and width of the garden. While such an installation can be costly as well as impractical, a more modern adaptation for your Persian garden can consist of a small in-ground pool or fountain in the center of your garden. If your enclosed garden already has a gate or stone wall surrounding it, you can plan your Persian garden inside that designated area. If you do not have a wall, an option is to create one with shrubs. Here you can choose from a large variety of evergreen or flowering shrubs. Flowering shrubs that will provide a nice wall include Frosty Blue Ceanothus, Island Mountain Mahogany, and James Roof Silk Tassel. Evergreens for this purpose include Emerald Green and Pyramidal Arborvitaes. If you live in an area where deer come through your yard on a regular basis, substitute the Island Mountain mahogany with something else, as deer eat these shrubs.

Mark off the central area of your garden for a pool or fountain, as you do not necessarily have to have this element installed first. In place of water channels, you can have a walkway leading up to the pool or fountain. Regarding flowers, you can plant either ones traditional to a Persian garden, or your own personal favorites, or a combination of both. Traditional flowers in a Persian garden include: rose (the national flower of Iran), jasmine, peonies, chrysanthemums, poppies. In shady areas of the garden, go for flowers that thrive in light shade: foxglove, astilbe, and day lilies.

When it comes to planting your flowers, you can create any number of designs with them in the quartered areas. You can have them planted along the border near the walkway, crosswise in one quarter, or any other number of patterns you choose to use. You can also have smaller, rectangular flower beds inside of each quarter with a grassy path down the center. If you want to have at least one quarter for a picnicking area, leave it an open area except for the flowers bordering it. Here you can place garden furniture or a gazebo. If you live in a climate where fruit trees grow well, you can select one or two for your garden.
