If talking about them, or trying to describe them to somebody, I would call
all of those examples either garden beds or flower beds.

When I've mapped similar beds as part of a park, I've gone with
leisure=garden
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:leisure=garden?uselang=en-AU working
on this "A garden can also be a part of a park and might be for example
fenced or distinguishable by its vegetation."

On that page, though, I just noticed a fairly recent amendment to include
reference to https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:landuse%3Dflowerbed -
used ~4000 times so possibly worth paying attention to!

& also the undocumented man_made=flowerbed, which is also used 311 times.

 Thanks

Graeme
