And I disagree with all of them being leisure=garden.
The green patches between a road and a footway are not 'leisure' things
.. they are 'safety' things .. particularly beside busy roads.
If these same areas were covered with concrete .. would you still think
of them as 'leisure'? In other words .. are you associating the 'cover'
with the 'use' of these areas?
Approach =the problem from 2 different ways of thinking -
What is the 'cover' ... landcover ?
and then
What is the 'use' ... landuse?
Once you divide those 2 things up it makes it clearer what is there.

thanks for the photos.
I agree with all of them as leisure=garden, except for the bottom
right one. From the photo it is not clear whether this is spontaneous
vegetation or planted vegetation. Only n the latter case I would
accept the garden concept

I thought the original question was broader than just the patches of
green next to the road. I also want to know how to map those green
patches when they are not part of roundabouts, or are located between
sidewalk and road (where cars drive).
To help us focus on what type of “green” I’m (and others) are
thinking of, I have prepared a photo-collage:

At the core of all this we we see:
- areas of any size but more often small
- a variety of grass, plants, flowers and trees in any number and
combination
- located mostly inside urban areas
- there is not normally an entrance to the area but sometime a
footpath divides it
Tagging this with leisure=garden covers all situations quiet well,
save for the “entrance” part.
One other idea was to add the operator=* tag. E.g.
operator=municipality.
One of the other possibilities (proposed in the Dutch Forum) to
tackle this problem, is to redifine village_green to mean
something different in The Netherlands then in the UK. Such local
meaning of tags we also see for highway tagging.
