I'm not sure how much appropriate usage is it, but it's pretty common in
Czech republic to tag these areas landuse='village_green', because it's
not always only grass.

There is ongoing thread in talk-cz, because some people started to tag
these back yards around family houses like leisure=garden, but not
everyone agrees that this is the right tag. Here in Czech republic it's
often just grass, few trees or other plants (functional or aesthetical),
usually fenced and definitely no public access. I guess it would be nice
to have some way to tag this and distinguish it from "true" garden.
