John, what you describe is done everyday by many including many of us here. How you handle the composition is key.
I've seen many outstanding landscapes and then carelessly there's a naked woman stuck somewhere in the frame, completely out of place and in no way connected, ruining both shots.
There has to be a harmony or purpose.
For example your subject could be leaning over and smelling some roses. Or with a bouquet of flowers in one hand and picking a flower to add to the bouquet or with an old fashioned watering can, watering the flowers, etc. It can be done very well or it can be done very poorly. The idea is to have continuity with the natural habitat. The space you are speaking of was likely created for the enjoyment of humans, so there's nothing wrong with having a human in it!
The tech aspects are your challenge, like the pano or splicing or whatever. Most are only interested in the final image. Personally I'd keep it as simple as possible. I'm glad to post an example of a garden if you like.

Thanks John. Yes, photos are welcomed. The gardens are in fact, created by the clients. Hence, the idea to showcase the flora with the clients as part of the natural harmony. Thank you.
