UNSPSC 10161645: Portulaca plant

Flowering plant from the potulacaceae family, with yellow petals.

UNSPSC 10161645 Portulaca plant is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure landscape plants and related nursery products as components of grounds maintenance and beautification projects. The recent solicitations show that portulaca and similar ornamental plants are bought through two procurement channels: direct plant supply contracts that furnish seedlings, plugs, and finished nursery stock on an as-needed basis, and construction-phase landscape installation projects that integrate plants into median work, park restoration, and grounds redesign. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county commissions and city procurement offices responsible for public grounds, parks, and infrastructure corridors. The Pasco County Board of County Commissioners and the City of Altamonte Springs, Florida both posted landscape plant solicitations within the past two months, indicating active near-term demand among Florida municipalities.

Recent opportunities reflect two distinct buying patterns. The City of Altamonte Springs issued ITB 26-085-KY on August 24, 2026 for nursery plants and products including annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seeds, and trees on an as-needed basis, with bids due July 29, 2026—a re-bid indicating prior contract performance—structured by product group with contract commencement October 1, 2026 and renewal options through five years. Pasco County Board of County Commissioners posted IFBKM27004 on September 2, 2026 for landscape and irrigation construction Phase II along Little Road, with bids due October 6, 2026, encompassing planting and site work as part of a larger capital project. Activity concentrates in Florida; no recent opportunities in other states appear in the current block. State and local plant procurement under this code remains driven by seasonal grounds maintenance cycles and periodic infrastructure renewal projects rather than by high-dollar capital work.
