Garden
noun
1 a piece of ground, often near a house, used for growing flowers,
fruit, or vegetables.
€ ( gardens) ornamental grounds laid out for public enjoyment and
recreation : botanical gardens.


English(UK) "garden" used same as English(USA) "lawn".
English(USA) "garden" is often minor subset of
English(USA) "lawn". English(USA) "lawn" often contains
other things like "flowerbeds", "trees", "shrubberies".
rarely do they contain things called "hedges".

next clarification would be the discussion of
English(UK) usage of "compost" vs English(USA).
