I understand that garden could be “hua yuan” or alternatives, I was just wondering what the appropriate verb would be to “tend” the garden/or “garden” the garden? =) thank!

你好 ISOLOVE

我想你可以用“照料”

比 方 说:

我家花园的花一天天地累减,都是因为妈妈没有时间照料它们

bǐ fāng shuō:

wǒ xiǎng nǐ kě yǐ yòng zhào liào

wǒ jiā huā yuán de huā yī tiān tiān dì lèi jiǎn
dōu shì yīn wéi mā mā méi yǒu shí jiān zhào liào tā men

I think you can (also) use zhào liào
The example says:

My flowers in my home-GARDEN are getting lese and less, because my mother
has no time to take care (to TEND for) them.

hi 陆蓝克,
你说的是对的,可以用“照料”。
不过我们不太说’累减’, 而是用’递减/越来越少’, ‘more and more’是’累加/增加/越来越多’
