Flowers Category Overview
The Flowers category, identified by the ID 984, is located within the Google Product Taxonomy under the path Home & Garden > Plants > Flowers. It is a level-3 category designed for items that represent cut flowers or floral arrangements intended for decorative or gifting purposes.
This category is intended for ready-to-display floral arrangements. Examples from the US market include various bouquets featuring roses, lilies, carnations, gerbera daisies, and bouvardia flowers. Whether you are selling curated romance bouquets, colorful seasonal arrangements, or specific bundles of mini carnations, these items belong in this specific classification.
Items that are intended for planting or long-term growth do not belong here. You should categorize these in the following neighbouring categories: Trees for saplings, Seeds for agricultural or garden seeds, Aquatic Plants for underwater vegetation, Indoor & Outdoor Plants for potted plants, and Plant & Herb Growing Kits for DIY botanical sets.
Since this is the most specific level in the taxonomy, there are no subcategories to choose from for floral products.
To include this in your feed, use either the ID 984 or the full path Home & Garden > Plants > Flowers. Remember that this attribute is optional; however, manual assignment ensures better precision than Google's automated classification. Note that product_type is a separate, free-form attribute for your internal inventory management and does not replace the required google_product_category field.
