UNSPSC 10161820 Mijo plant is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure ornamental plants, shrubs, ground covers, and nursery stock for landscaping, roadway beautification, and environmental restoration projects. Recent solicitations show municipalities and counties buying potted plants, plugs, trees, grass seeds, specimen shrubs, native Florida species, and sod in bulk quantities on as-needed, when-needed bases, often with delivery to multiple locations and supplier contracts spanning one to five years. Issuing bodies include cities, county commissions, and special-purpose district divisions; the City of Altamonte Springs, Florida; Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners; Collier County Board of County Commissioners; and the City of Fairburn, Georgia have posted plant-procurement solicitations in recent months. One solicitation—Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies—appears unrelated to plant material and does not reflect typical activity under this code.
