Themed garden
A theme garden is a garden on a limited area with a design reference that is based on a certain theme. The content and objects of the themed garden are of a conceptual character and are delimited to a specific topic.
Theme gardens can be part of theme parks , parks , amusement parks or garden shows. For example, a prize has been awarded for the presentation of a theme at the Chelsea Flower Show since 1850. 35 themed gardens were presented at the Leverkusen State Garden Show 2005 .
Larger theme parks are occasionally divided into other "theme areas", e.g. B. "Country areas" are divided, in each of which other topics are dealt with through the creation of characteristic gardens. For example in botanical gardens with their continent and country-specific gardens.
