Spanish term

jardinismo

Spanish to English Art/Literary Botany
From a text about the work of a contemporary Argentine painter:

Detritus de panorámicas de exterior, retratos de naturaleza transfigurada y hasta un cierto jardinismo disonante de cualidad metafísica que se escapa de lo visual expandiéndose hacia otros sentidos.

Landscaping??

Thanks
