Body: <p>I'm trying to figure what would be the simplest way to do such filtering:</p>
  
  <p>I would like to make it in that way that selecting one of "Specialities" category would limit results from the selected "Plant" category.</p>
  
  <p>Though I want a selection of the second category to be optional, so everyone can browse live and dried i.e. Mint plants or only herbs from all plants if they want.</p>

  <p>How can I start? Any help would be greatly appreciated :-) Thank you.</p>
