Like everything else on this list, these are just my opinions and I'm sure others will have a different take. Here is what I would do.<div><br><div>A new key should go through the same proposal process. Since your focus is on defining trees that would be in a nursery, you could create a Plant proposal that had the detail you want in trees but leave placeholders for everything else: herbs, grasses, vines, etc. <div>

As others have the need to refer to other plants, they can add to it.<div>
<br></div><div>I went through a similar process when I wanted to define a Homeless Shelter. It made sense to work with another user on his definition of "social_facility", of which homeless shelter was a subtype. I haven't got around to cleaning up Homeless Shelter though...</div>

I'm willing to do so, in this case would that need an additional
proposed feature?<br>

<div>Are you going to create a new plant key? Maybe at least a
landing page and some examples that cover your original needs to
describe trees.

Is there a reason that you want such a specific tag?<br>
<br>
There is also an old/abandon RFC for almost an identical
tag value:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Plant_nursery" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Plant_nursery</a><br>

You could extend this to add a subtag to indicate the
types of plants grown.<br>

I tend to agree here, it is indeed better to use a more
generic plant nursery type instead of the specific tree
nursery. This way we can also capture other plants by the
same purpose. However, it still has to remain the way that
it is used for growing plants only for sellings the plants
afterwards. I.e. not for growing crops for food
production, as that is a typical example of landuse=farm.<br>
<br>
Therefore, I modified my proposal into the older abandoned
version of plant nursery and put it to 'proposed' feature
again. I've merged my information on the older page for
the feature and added some links from the tree_nursery
towards the plant_nursery feature.<br>

I like the use of the broader Plant Nursery tag with a
subtag for specific types of plants grown.<br>
<br>
A couple of (the many) ways to capture the type:<br>
<br>
1. The shop model (shop=<type>). <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:shop" target="_blank">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:shop</a><br>
<br>
2. The recycling model (recycling:<type>=yes/no).

You mentioned a "produces" tag in your proposal.
Instead of this, I'd like to see a plant=<type>
tag, which could lead to a Plant page on the wiki that
could be also referenced by places like garden centres
and farms, but this could be a much bigger project.<br>
<br>

<br>
You are right, I hereby modified 'produces' towards
'plant'.<br>
