OT but I'm British and this is the first I've heard of a garden meaning anything other than an area for growing food and/or decorative plants.

Really? What's your word?
The Irish I talk to all call their private patch of green adjacent their house a 'garden' even if it contains only grass with optional tree. I had assumed they got the word from you guys.

I think the confusion here is from you presenting a "yard" as an alternative, when a yard in UK/Ireland would be a space that's mostly or entirely paved or has some other artifical surface
