Woody vine liana genus of the vine family, vitaceae. It is a hanging plant characterized by the shape of its leaves and its intense green color

UNSPSC 10161809 Cissus plant (Commodity) covers ornamental live plants for landscaping and grounds maintenance. State and local governments procure cissus and related nursery stock on an as-needed basis for roadway median beautification, community grounds, and grounds-management projects managed by county commissioners, city procurement divisions, and special-purpose service districts. While cissus is listed as the specific commodity code, recent solicitations show that state and local buyers source cissus alongside broader plant families including ornamental shrubs, grasses, native Florida species, plugs, trees, and sod—typically in line-item bid structures that allow vendors to offer catalog pricing with percentage discounts or unit pricing across multiple plant categories rather than as cissus-only purchases.

Recent activity centers on Florida and Georgia jurisdictions. The City of Altamonte Springs, Florida issued ITB 26-085-KY (due July 29, 2026) for as-needed nursery plants and products including 3-gallon potted plants across thirteen varieties, with delivery to two zip codes within 15 days. Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued ITB 26-8667 (due July 8, 2026) for plants, trees, and shrubs for the Pelican Bay Services Division, encompassing 78 line items of ornamental plants, native species, and sod with historical annual expenditures near $300,000; award was made on a line-item basis to the lowest responsive bidder(s), with three-year initial term and two one-year renewal options. The City of Fairburn, Georgia issued IFB 26-013 (due June 16, 2026) for landscape enhancements including shrub plantings and groundcover installation in roadway medians, awarded on a lump-sum basis to the lowest responsive bidder. These solicitations typically require proof of Florida nursery licensing, Commercial General Liability insurance at $1,000,000, Florida Business Tax Registration, and E-Verify compliance.
