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.

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.

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

Kind regards,
