I had this before.... turns out the Bot is scanning every word not just titles and descriptions, every ASIN field and seems to rank some words higher than others as far as being relevant goes. I searched the listing and found a couple of words in product details that COULD relate to the wrong category they kept putting it in, deleted those and bingo all good. Contacting SS didnt help at all they just kept telling me they had moved it to correct category. Obvs the words in title should have way more weight but nooooooo. Id recommend you go through every single detail of the listing and see if theres any words even remotely connected to plants/seeds etc, delete those and then try selecting the proper category again and fingers crossed it stays there ;)

SICK AND TIRED OF AMAZON NONSENSE. If theres mods watching over the general mood of sellers in the UK, I don't think I'm alone in saying I've grown a deep dislike, distrust and outright disgust at Amazon.
Several Kups Dolcegusto listings removed for having Group Seb barcodes, despite the IP for Krups being owned by Group Seb. I've apparently got to provide a letter confirming a relationship between Krups and Dolce Gusto in order to fix the listings, despite Amazon selling multiple Krups Dolce Gusto machines and guess what, all Group Seb barcodes. NONSENSE!
I know that Amazon and the Tefal brand have a direct relationship and association, as Tefal sell their goods through Amazon themselves. So I set up a case to ask for some sort of proof, such as the letter of affiliation that Amazon expect me to be able to provide. Did I get one, of course I didnt, you already know this. So Amazon expect us to be able to get in touch with those in power within brands and get documents, but despite us having a direct line into Amazon themselves and they still wont provide the same sort of document either. NONSENSE!
Tonnes of squishmallows products listed as PS5 games, previous posts in here looked like I was getting help, any of them corrected? NOPE. NONSENSE!
4 IPs from the same brand for parallel. Invoice provided by the legitimate UK supplier, a brand everyone reading this will know and trust. Denied due to suspicions its been "edited". Ive since provided the entire chain of custody, bank statements, emails to the supplier asking for the invoice, emais from them with the file attached, and the original file and its filename. Has it been accepted for the legitimate non-parallel purchase made, NOPE. NONSENSE!
Amazon being investigated for monopolistic tactics and saying they "commit to treating third party sellers and Amazon retail equally regarding the buybox algorythm". I have a listing with only us and Amazon selling on it, its even co-mingled (and thats yet another problem where Amazon fall flat but too much to go into here.....). So basically, its the same stock, same service, same delivery expectations and the price, Amazon match ANY price I set instantly, so same price. Sells 100-200 a month. How many of those sales am I seeing? a tiny fraction...... I sent 60 units around december and still have nearly half.... And now Amazon will charge me late storage fees for the privalidge of not selling my stock to customers. NONSENSE!
If you're on a listing and can clearly show Amazon is not treating third party sellers equally, check your home page and make a complaint. The torrent of evidence backed complaints should either get them fined, or enact some sort of change.....

We had the same for a TV stand. Going to start planting them and hope they grow some babies. Saves me buying them.

Me too for hangers but when I followed the instructions from the email nothing there, checked the listing and all as as it should be. For such a global company you would think their systems would be alot more advanced.

Perhaps we just just hope all Amz Execs get a lovely ride into Space and they use this same Bot to do the programming of the space craft.
That way they will live in Space and not know how to return to mess more things up.
And.. Amazon want us to use AI more, when it cannot even do the basics!
At least when raised as a SS case, it should be over-riden and the BOT stopped from making a mess of everything. Shows too the programmers bodge up, regularly.
