Hi,
The following Talmudic passage appears to be sensitive to Megilat Esther's repetition of "the palace garden".
"Esther 7:7 says, 'And the king rose in his anger from the feast of wine, to the palace garden... And the king returned from the palace garden.' It links his return to his rising from the feast; just as he rose in anger, so he returned in anger, for he went and found angels, looking like men, uprooting the trees of his orchard. He said to them, 'What are you doing?' And they replied, 'Haman told us to do this.'"
(Talmud, Megilah 16a)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
