Kashmir Green Garden
A garden is a planned space,
usually outdoors, set aside for the display, cultivation, or enjoyment of
plants and other forms of nature. The garden can incorporate both natural and
man-made materials. The most common form today is known as a residential
garden, but the term garden has traditionally been a more general one. Zoos,
which display wild animals in simulated natural habitats, were formerly called
zoological gardens. Western gardens are almost universally based on plants,
with garden often signifying a shortened form of botanical garden. Some traditional
types of eastern gardens, such as Zen gardens, use plants sparsely or not at
all.
Gardens may exhibit structural
enhancements, sometimes called follies, including water features such as
fountains, ponds (with or without fish), waterfalls or creeks, dry creek beds,
statuary, arbors, trellises and more. Some gardens are for ornamental purposes
only, while some gardens also produce food crops, sometimes in separate areas,
or sometimes intermixed with the ornamental plants. Food-producing gardens are
distinguished from farms by their smaller scale, more labor-intensive methods,
and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby or self-sustenance rather than
producing for sale). Flower gardens combine plants of different heights,
colors, textures, and fragrances to create interest and delight the senses.
Gardening is the activity of
growing and maintaining the garden.
This work is done by an amateur or
professional gardener. A gardener might also work in a non-garden setting, such
as a park, a roadside embankment, or other public space. Landscape architecture
is a related professional activity with landscape architects tending to
specialize in design for public and corporate clients.
