Today I made progress in calmly stating my boundary and then sticking to it. Just repeating "Yes, it was nice of you to want to help me, but please don't in future, please leave that area to me, it is mine." I didn't allow myself to be side-tracked by this person's justifications about why she was doing work in my part of the garden, why she thought it was somebody else's (not mine)

I ended the conversation by leaving, as the person was trying to dump her concerns about the landlords on to me and wasn't taking my suggestion that she speak to ll herself on board. She wanted me to do the work.
uh, uh.You gotta do it yourself.
