Arboretum
Does the same-color bonus double a path's score, and are the 1 and 8 bonuses doubled too?
The rulebook lists the card points and each bonus as separate additions, and a poster confirms the bonus does not strictly double the path.

Not strictly. The same-color bonus adds one point per card, which matches the card-count points, but it is not a doubling step. The 1 and 8 bonuses are flat points added on top and are never doubled. A 1-to-8 path of one color is 8 + 8 + 1 + 2 = 19.
