UNSPSC 10152026: Podocarpus tree seed or cutting

Podocarpaceae family tree seed

UNSPSC 10152026 Podocarpus tree seed or cutting, a Commodity code, describes seed or nursery plant materials for specific tree species—in this case podocarpus—that state and local governments procure for landscaping, restoration, and beautification projects. Recent opportunities under codes nominally close to this one show municipalities, counties, state natural resources departments, and special districts actively purchasing tree seedlings, bare-root stock, containerized plants, and seeds for street planting, park renovation, median landscaping, and habitat restoration. However, the recent-opportunities block contains no solicitations explicitly tagged to podocarpus seed or cutting; instead, activity centers on higher-volume native species (oak, hickory, dogwood, maple, pine, spruce) and ornamental stock (Royal Palm, Magnolia, Buttonwood, Live Oak). The issuing bodies span state departments of natural resources, county boards of commissioners, city parks and recreation departments, towns, and special-purpose districts. Geographic spread includes Michigan (containerized seedling contracts and tree restoration work), Florida (ornamental tree and palm installation across multiple counties), Georgia (tree preservation and replanting), Texas (street tree planting in Jackson), Wisconsin (fall tree planting), North Carolina (urban forestry and landscape services), and Maryland (climate-funded urban forestry).

Recent representative opportunities illustrate the scope of work: the City of Jackson, Michigan solicited furnishing, delivery, planting, and one-year maintenance of approximately 200 street trees across 37 specified species under ENG 25-04C (rebid, proposals due September 30, 2026, IFB format); the Michigan Department of Natural Resources awarded a five-year containerized seedlings and services contract to PRT USA, INC for high-volume conifer and hardwood stock ($6.25 million total, RFP with September 1, 2026 submission deadline); Collier County solicited furnishing and installation of trees and palms in Pelican Bay rights-of-way under Quick Quote (responses due September 28, 2026); and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners solicited tree replanting across eight scenic roadways under ITB 26-00257 (estimated $742,380 one-year contract, bids due May 26, 2026). The code itself shows minimal recent activity specifically for podocarpus; the nearby opportunities predominantly reflect demand for native restoration stock, large-scale ornamental nursery materials, and established landscape installation and maintenance services rather than specialty seed or cutting procurement.
