Notes
- Category is Nurseries: official first-party shop with a working cart, visible tree prices, and a confirmable City, ST (Bandon, OR).
- Oregon already has listed nurseries (Akira, Mirai, Left Coast). This is a fourth Oregon nursery, shipped because it cleared the cart / real-prices / City, ST bar after zero-state nursery candidates failed that bar on this check.
- No founding year is printed—“after a forty year career in Culinary” is a personal timeline. Do not invent a calendar year.
- Visible contact is [email protected]; schema also lists [email protected]. Street address is from first-party structured data (Medohill Rd, not a different suffix).
- Not affiliated with The Bonsai Plaza. No contact, cart, purchase or form action was taken.
