Best Answer

There is no such species as the Garden Snake.

The above answer is misleading because it refers to a common name and not a scientific or Latin name. It depends on what part of the country you lkive in and sometimes even the distinct locality. Garter snakes are commonly call garden snakes due to the fact that they commonly are found in gardens searching for food. that is the problem with common names, they are just that, common and many snakes are referred to as Garden snakes depending on locality. Garden snake is commonly listed as a common name for Garter snakes in most of the herpetological literature>

There are NO species called Garden Snakes or Garder Snakes. I think the species you are referring to is a GARTER Snake.

But yes they are the same thing, people just started naming them the Gardener snake because they were commonly found in gardens. Their real name is the Garter snake.
