I've given your dilemma, (no reference to "if life gives you dilemmas, make dilemmanaid", please!), in-depth and serious consideration (for at least 8 seconds) and reached the conclusion that you are correct:
imaginary toads in real gardens would be more acceptable than the reverse; real toads in imaginary gardens...
Of course, the other two side of the box would be just plain silly. That is, 'imaginary gardens in real toads' and, 'real gardens in imaginary toads'.
All this to say that Semantics is the key to your title problem.
