The garden became beautiful as a result of his work.
The process of the making it so was not done "beautifully." In fact, it was probably often sweaty, dirty work.

Hi
Welcome to the forum
I don't see anything wrong with the verb.
Consider the following situations:
A: Wow! Nice flowers you have planted. What a pleasant smell they've got.
B: You really mean it?
C: Yeah! You've made it beautiful.
A: He's such a nice and tidy guy.
B: Yeah! We also ask him to do the gardening every year.
A: Just look! how beautifully he has made ours.
B: Fabulous!
Good luck
P.S. I've learned this way of shedding lights on topics (making up conversations) from The Parser. He really makes such cool examples.
