Trees (ID: 1684)
The Trees category is a specific classification within the Google product taxonomy, identified by ID 1684 and located at Home & Garden > Plants > Trees. This category is intended for nursery stock, live trees, and saplings intended for outdoor planting.
This category is specifically for woody perennial plants categorized as trees. Examples from the US market include deciduous varieties like Red Maples, Quaking Aspen, and Flowering Crabapple, as well as evergreen species such as Colorado Blue Spruce, Thuja Green Giant, and Eastern White Pine. Fruit and flowering trees like Peach, Magnolia, and Crape Myrtle also fall under this classification. Ensure your product data reflects the live nature of these items.
Products that do not belong in this category should be mapped to more appropriate sections based on their primary function or type. Items that should be categorized elsewhere include:
- Flowers: Ornamental plants that are not trees.
- Seeds: Packets of seeds for growing plants.
- Aquatic Plants: Vegetation specifically designed for ponds or water features.
- Indoor & Outdoor Plants: General house plants or shrubs that do not meet the definition of a tree.
- Plant & Herb Growing Kits: Bundled sets containing containers, soil, and seeds.
There are no subcategories below this level, so this is the most specific destination for your tree products.
