garden plants

Backyard botanical specimens

Plants cultivated in gardens, typically for ornamental display, food production, or both.

The term distinguishes domesticated varieties from wild plants or houseplants: The nursery specializes in garden plants suited to dry climates.

Garden plants include flowers, vegetables, herbs, shrubs, and ornamental grasses—anything intentionally grown outdoors in cultivated soil.
