<div class="">Although I searched the wiki and didn’t find the

“defacto” page made for landuse=flowerbed. </div>

<div class="">I think making this page more fleshed out would
serve well. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Define it as an area used primarily for decorative
flowers and other ornamental plants (that are not hedges or
trees). <br>

Why the height restriction? Some shrubs and trees have spectacular
flowers... <br>

<div class="">That tag can be used in the decorations seen out
front of a mall or school, the beds of flowers in a rose garden,
large outdoor flower installations, or a decorative display
found in roadside landscaping.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Let the larger landuse define the purpose (garden,
retail, park, median, etc), just like we use fence, wall, or
parking. <br>

<span class="moz-smiley-s8"><span>=-O</span></span> Is it really a
'landuse'? Or better as a 'landcover'? <br>
<br>
Roadside landscaping is really use of the land for the road verge
and as such is really landuse=road/highway.<br>
<br>
I think that the tag should be for what is there - the land cover.
<br>
What the land is used for can change from one flower bed to another.
<br>
Possibly this landuse=flowerbed thinking follows that ridiculous tag
landuse=grass? <br>
