I just don't understand why they think people mow gardens.
Grass is a part of gardens??? Where do you live that your garden has no lawn/grass in it??? If you own a house the area around it is called a garden, and taking care of it is called gardening, what kind of house are you used to???
Living in Canada. Very few of the gardens in my neighbourhood have grass. It's not as uncommon as you think.
But lawn mowing would be taking care of the garden if it had grass in it, and would be gardening by extension, that was the crux of the argument.
"I have to go mow the garden."
-- Literally no one.
In America gardens are typically the tilled soil where one grows fruits, herbs, vegetables, and/or flowers. The grass is the lawn. Most houses have lawns, not everyone has the time, knowledge, or interest to have a garden.
I sort of assumed at one point that squid is American, kind of weird that taking care of one specific type of plant is somehow not considered gardening in america
Nah, squid live in the ocean, America is on land. Not sure what that has to do with grass, but whatever, now you know!
Of course, how could I forget! Thanks for reminding me
