<br />
A '''tea garden''' is an outdoor space or [[garden]] where [[tea]] and light refreshments are served, or any garden with which the drinking of tea is associated. Especially in India, it is also a common term for a [[tea plantation]].<ref>{{cite web| url = https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/tea%20garden|title=Tea garden Definition & Meaning|website=Merriam-Webster}}</ref> The tea garden was a part of early English commercial [[pleasure garden]]s; often parties of couples visited these, the men occupying themselves with [[lawn bowls]] and beer or wine, while the ladies went to the tea garden. In modern times it often means an outside area at a [[cafe]] or [[tearoom]]. <br />

In [[Japanese garden]]ing, a ''[[roji]]'' is a particular style of relatively small garden, originally developed for the entry gardens to [[Chashitsu|Japanese teahouse]]s, intended to set the mood of guests arriving for the [[Japanese tea ceremony]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.britannica.com/art/landscape-architecture|title=Landscape architecture|website=[[Encyclopedia Britannica]]}}</ref> These are designed almost exclusively to be seen from the path leading through them to the building, and tea would not normally be consumed in them. The style is suitable for smaller [[front garden]]s of houses, and has often been used for these, both in Japan and the West.<br />

The term may sometimes be used for a [[Kitchen garden#Herb garden|herb garden]] specializing in [[herb]]s that are consumed as tea, such as [[chamomile]], [[Monarda|bee balm]], [[peppermint]], [[lemon balm]], and [[lavender]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/herbs/hgen/tea-plants-for-garden.htm|title=Herbal Tea Gardens: How To Use Tea Plants For A Garden|website=gardeningknowhow.com|first=Jackie|last=Carroll|date=April 5, 2018}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.finegardening.com/article/plant-an-herbal-tea-garden|title=Plant an Herbal Tea Garden|date=June 29, 2013|first=Chris|last=McLaughlin|website=[[Fine Gardening]]}}</ref><br />
