     Unless the tenancy says otherwise. Which would be unusual but not impossible

    the tenants handbook is online and makes it clear that the tenant is responsible for looking after the garden:

    "If your home includes a garden as part of the tenancy, you must keep the garden well maintained and in a tidy condition at all times. You are responsible for looking after all parts of your garden which may include grass, plants, bushes, trees, sheds, outbuildings and hedges and make sure it is free from excessive weeds."
