a product always has 1 and only 1 specific application
a product belongs to 1 and only 1 group
a product may involve 1, and then only one, type of plant
a product may have 0, 1 or more product features

3.2.5Explanation

1: code list ‘1’ for PRODUCT. This ID allows for the possibility to make an explicit reference to this list from code list NAME

3: application code, see §;3.3; reference to code list APPLICATION

4: VBN product name: if the product is a plant, as a rule, its name is made up of the concatenation of its genus name, species name (if any) and its cultivar name (if any); in some cases the name may consist of non-botanical elements

5: display abbreviation: short name for (clock) display purposes

6: ID of the organisation that has registered the plant, for example:

1: VKC
2: VAR-B

Together with field 7, this field constitutes a reference to code list PLANT

7: number under which the plant is registered by the registration authority

8: indicator telling whether the product is an individual product or a mixed plant; meant to support possible future rules and constraints regarding mixed products, for example:

1: individual product
2: mixed plant

For the meanwhile this indicator is filled with ‘0’

9: existing VBN group code.

3.4PLANT

3.4.1Definition

A plant is a botanical product of the floricultural industry, taxonomically unambiguously identified with the ID of a VBN acknowledged supplier of plant data. Products with ‘other’ or ‘mixed’ in their name are not taxonomically unambiguous so, by definition, these do not count as plants.

3.4.2Relationships

Plant has the following relationships:

a plant belongs to 1 and only 1 genus
a plant may belong to 1, and then only to 1 species
a plant may be cultivar, and then only 1.

Examples of a plant in relation to genus, species and cultivar are:

Hedera helix ‘Adam’: genus with species and cultivar
Grivillea ‘Spiderman’: genus with cultivar without species
Grivillea asplenifolia: genus with species without cultivar.
