garden ornaments

Outdoor decorative objects

Garden ornaments are decorative objects placed in outdoor spaces—statues, birdbaths, sundials, gnomes, gazing balls, and the like.

They range from classical stone urns to kitsch flamingos.

The term covers anything meant to enhance a garden's appearance rather than serve a practical function: The yard was cluttered with garden ornaments of every description.
