ORNAMENTAL GARDEN
Ornamental gardens are specially designed areas with plants that are
designed for the purpose of aesthetic pleasure rather than the production of crops.
Landscaping plants often integrate ornamental plants into their designs, and many
cities have gardens for the pleasure of residents. Some botanical gardens also
include ornamental sections which showcase striking and interesting plants as
opposed to preserving botanical specimens, which is their primary purpose. The
practice of laying out ornamental gardens appears to be ancient. Humans have
long had a fondness for art and beautiful things, and once the basics of
agriculture had been mastered landscaping was not far behind. In fact, such
gardens were even included in the seven wonders of the Ancient World, in the
form of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, which were allegedly designed for the
pleasure of a rulers wife.
Ornamental gardens often surround public buildings to make them more
visually interesting churches, galleries, and other buildings devoted to
contemplation are also commonly surrounded with gardens that are used by their
members. Some religions even expressly include devotional activities which are
meant to be performed in a garden others are used to decorate private homes.
