I sit and look at it. Then I jump up and pull a weed, cut a bouquet, transplant something, etc. My garden is always a work in progress.

I have a walkout basement and just outside the sliding doors is a very small patio and flower bed adjoining. I had a small trellis-type thing built above the bed and planted clematis to climb it. I sit on a comfy bench there and look at my flowers.

I don’t have a great picture of the setup, but here’s a view from my bench last summer. This area is on the east side of my house so in the afternoon and evening it’s shaded. Plus the house blocks the wind, a good thing when it’s a little cool outside.

Ditto the above comment:

“I sit and look at it. Then I jump up and pull a weed, cut a bouquet, transplant something, etc. My garden is always a work in progress.”

My yard is very much smaller than what is shown above, but there’s always something to tweek, move, trim, or cuttings to be made and rooted — such as the begonia at the foot of the table.

There’s a small yard past the patio.

Same here. I’ll go outside, sit down with a drink, book, or whatever & then see something that needs to be trimmed, pulled , etc. Even though we have very comfortable outdoor furniture I find it hard to sit very long without seeing something that needs attention.

Spring comes early here, my clematis is ready to bloom, 6+ tall.
