Gardens are not just for flowers and vegetables, though those are a good reason to have a garden and a good thing to have in a garden. Gardens are a good place for inspirational decorations. Someone once said that one is closer to God in a garden, so it makes sense to make the garden a place where God is the focus of the things one sees.
