Gardens
often
have
design
features
including
statuary, follies, pergolas, trellises, stumperies,
dry
creek
beds,
and water
features such
as fountains, ponds (with
or
without fish), waterfalls or
creeks.
Some
gardens
are
for
ornamental
purposes
only,
while
others
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,
as
in
a market
garden). Flower
gardens combine
plants
of
different
heights,
colors,
textures,
and
fragrances
to
create
interest
and
delight
the
senses.
The
most
common
form
today
is
a
residential
or
public
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.[2][3] Western
gardens
are
almost
universally
based
on
plants,
with garden,
which
etymologically
implies enclosure,
often
signifying
a
shortened
form
of botanical
garden.
Some
traditional
types
of
eastern
gardens,
such
as Zen
gardens,
however,
use
plants
sparsely
or
not
at
all.
Landscape
gardens,
on
the
other
hand,
such
as
the English
landscape
gardens first
developed
in
the
18th
century,
may
omit
flowers
altogether.
Landscape
architecture is
a
related
professional
activity
with landscape
architects tending
to
engage
in
design
at
many
scales
and
working
on
both
public
and
private
projects.
