Doesn't a garden need a lawn?
Wild Gnomes are very common in the marshlands of Dorset, but that doesn't make them common-or-garden gnomes does it? So it isn't a garden. Therefore I don't really think that can go in a lurking in the garden competition. I am new so I may be wrong, but it has never happened before - I have German ancestry you know.

many people in the countryside own property that spans many acres
Therefore their gardens can include forests and marshland and all sorts.
Even without that though artistic license is not only welcomed but positively encouraged here :)

Okay, I believe you,
I shall remove it from the competition on grounds of ineligable flora.

Put it back in on the grounds of
Kempton Palace because that's part of their garden.

If you could hear duck and gnomeish you would know....
...that you were never in a garden of any sort!

I think that should settle it.
