What must nursery stock be according to CCR 3061 when offered for sale?

According to CCR 3061, nursery stock must be labeled with information that is essential for both the seller and the buyer. While it may be implied that labeling provides critical information about the plant's origin, variety, and care instructions, in terms of legal requirements, there is no absolute mandate stating that every plant must always have a label, making the term "may be labeled" valid in some contexts.

This means that while it is best practice to provide labels for clarity and informed purchasing, there are circumstances under which plants might be offered for sale without explicit labeling, such as small-scale vendors or casual sales. Thus, the phrasing acknowledges the variability in labeling practices allowed under the regulations rather than enforcing a stringent obligation.
