Which code does this activity belong in?
Nursery and Tree Production establishments grow nursery products such as stock, shrubbery, bulbs, and sod, or cultivate short rotation woody trees for pulp and tree stock. The distinguishing boundary with Floriculture Production is that nurseries focus on plants and trees for propagation and landscape use, while floriculture producers specialize in cut flowers, potted flowering plants, foliage plants, and flower seeds grown for ornamental sale and display.
