Why not gardens?
Why not gardens?

"Garden" is not the best word to use for this question, because "gardens" can mean "a garden", and the word "garden" means different things in the US and the UK. Also, the way your sentence is worded makes me think you meant something other than what you wrote. Please give us a different example.

Some people are so fortunate that they have a luxurious car.
If you mean that each fortunate person has one, or at least one, luxurious car, it's "car". English doesn't handle number very well. If you put "cars", each person has more than one, so we're stuck with the mismatch in number.
