Mughal Gardens, Tulip Gardens, Apple Gardens or islands or floating gardens on the Dal Lake in Kashmir, are formed from the weeds, after collecting them from the lake itself. Such weeds mostly consist of Typha augustata and Phragmites communis which are in Kashmiri language known as Pech and Nargasa, respectively

These gardens are home to a variety of trees, plants, herbs, flowers and especially Chinar tree that enhance their beauty. In Kashmir region, most of the gardens are made in the Persian style of architecture as Mughals were highly impressed by it.
