UNSPSC 10161539 Palo rosa tree, a Commodity code, nominally covers individual tree species procurement, but recent state and local opportunities show the code being applied across a much broader range of tree supply and installation work. Harris County, the City of Fitchburg, the Maryland Environmental Service, Hillsborough County, and the Town of Palm Beach have all posted solicitations tagged to this code in the past four months, though the actual scope spans multiple tree species (Royal Palm, Serviceberry, Hackberry, Katsuratree, redbud, ginkgo, oaks, elms, and others), landscape installation and maintenance, soil preparation, mulching, watering, fertilization, and warranty periods ranging from six months to two years. Counties, municipalities, and state environmental agencies are the primary buyers. Work is typically solicited through ITB (Invitation to Bid) or RFP notice types, with contract values where disclosed ranging from $742,380 (Hillsborough County's one-year tree replanting along scenic roads) to estimated 800 trees across Baltimore County (Maryland Environmental Service), reflecting a mix of smaller municipal streetscape projects and larger regional landscape management initiatives.
