how to tag greenery that isn't in people's
gardens.  I'd still say use descriptive tagging and the fact that it's not
in somebody's garden explains what it is.  In
fact, all that matters is what it is, not where it is.  It's green and
might be pretty to look at. :)  That's what I've done around
my town where there are patches of greenery, like landcover=grass,
landcover=trees, etc.  If it's a park it's tagged as
a park, too.
