gardens
Cultivated planting areas
Gardens are plots of land cultivated for growing plants—flowers, vegetables, herbs, or ornamental shrubs.
A garden may be a small backyard patch or an elaborate public space: the botanical gardens, a rooftop garden.
The verb means to tend such a space: She gardens every weekend.
Figuratively, to tend your own garden is to focus on your own affairs rather than meddling in others'.
