UNSPSC 10152052: Aromo bush seed or cutting

Mimosaceae family bush seed, commonly known as aroma or huisache

UNSPSC 10152052 Aromo bush seed or cutting is a Commodity code representing native tree seed collection, containerized seedlings, and related propagation services that state and local governments procure for restoration and urban forestry projects. Recent opportunities show municipalities and state natural resources departments buying furnishing, planting, and establishment services for street trees and park restoration across multiple species, with substantial maintenance and warranty obligations built into contracts. The issuing bodies span city forestry departments, county commissions, school districts, and state natural resources agencies; Michigan's Department of Natural Resources appears as a repeat buyer for high-volume containerized seedling contracts and native seed collection. Work currently being solicited includes comprehensive street tree planting with one-year establishment maintenance (City of Jackson, Michigan; City of Charlotte; Collier County, Florida), native seedling and acorn collection for habitat restoration (Michigan Department of Natural Resources at Waterloo and Lake Hudson recreation areas), and landscape median and park improvements with tree installation and irrigation (Pasco County, Florida; City of DeBary, Florida). Contracts typically carry Davis-Bacon Act compliance and prevailing-wage requirements when federally funded, liquidated damages for late or incomplete planting, and performance/payment bonds scaled to contract value.

Recent activity concentrates in Michigan, Florida, Texas, and Georgia, with the highest density in Michigan (multiple City of Jackson rebids plus Michigan DNR containerized seedling RFPs) and Florida (Collier County, Hillsborough County, City of Savannah, Pasco County, DeBary). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Jackson, Michigan Street Tree Purchase & Planting (ENG 25-04C Rebid #2), an RFP rebid due September 30, 2026, furnishing approximately 200 street trees across 15 species for spring 2027 planting with one-year establishment maintenance through October 2029 and optional renewal through Spring 2028; the Michigan Department of Natural Resources RFP for Waterloo and Lake Hudson native trees (RFP 26-2320), awarded to Wildtype Design Native Plants and Seed LTD for $31,415 total over two years with up to one additional one-year renewal; and Hillsborough County Tree Replanting of Scenic Roads and Miscellaneous Areas (ITB-26-00257), an ITB due May 26, 2026, with estimated contract value of $742,380 for landscape installation and six-month establishment plus 12-month warranty across eight scenic roadways. Geographic scope extends to North Carolina (City of Charlotte), Texas (Williamson County, City of Arlington grounds maintenance), Georgia (Gwinnett County Christmas tree procurement, City of Savannah tree preservation and pruning), and New Mexico (Santa Fe Regional Airport landscape and snow removal), indicating sustained regional demand across the Sunbelt and Midwest.
