Genesi 2:14
To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.
Garden
Plants, in general, represent knowledge, ideas, and intellectual concepts -- things of the mind. Plant the best and most beautiful of those in one place, give them plenty of water (truth from the Lord about day-to-day things), plenty of sunlight (the Lord's wisdom) and warmth (the Lord's love), tend them to keep the weeds (false ideas) out, and you get a garden. So it makes sense that a garden in the Bible represents the intellect, where with proper care we can nurture the best and most useful ideas and ways of thinking.
