Early national period house gardens

So, I went to the courthouse to do a chain of ownership search and found out that my farmhouse is rather older than I had thought.

I'm curious what would have been available to some farmwife who wanted to nurture a small bit of beauty in 1810 in Pennyslvania's hinterlands. Would the format been more like a useful herb garden and informal for those of somewhat modest means?
