Is there 'correct' tagging for these areas, which are widespread in the areas 
that I map and are important to the public?

there are 2 competing tags, leisure=nature_reserve and boundary protected area 
for this kind of object. None of them states it is named after a forest, or 
mainly covered by forest. Maybe this could become an additional property, e.g. 
for protected_area objects?

Usually the administration boundary does not define the plants stopping or 
starting at that same point.

So I prefer to define the plants with another relation/way rather than 
artificially use the administration boundary.

Thus I use landcover=trees (with natural=wood for the moment to keep rendering) 
for the tree areas - common around me and very extensive,
while the reserves and National Parks get different relations/ways for them.
