UNSPSC 10201507: Live cool water rose bush

Live bush including the roots of the cool water variety of rose

UNSPSC 10201507 Live cool water rose bush (Commodity) covers ornamental plants and landscaping materials being supplied and installed by state and local jurisdictions in capital projects, infrastructure beautification, and environmental restoration work. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying containerized plant material — including native dune species, shade trees, shrubs, groundcover, and specimen plants — supplied to project sites as new, unopened stock in original packaging, often with freight included in delivered pricing and performance warranties extending one to two years post-installation. The work encompasses both standalone plant supply contracts and integrated landscaping-and-irrigation installations where plants are furnished as part of broader site restoration or public facility projects. Issuing bodies include county commissions (Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County), city procurement offices (Dallas), and county departments managing recreation facilities and environmental mitigation. Counties in Florida dominate recent activity, reflecting coastal restoration and stormwater-pond landscaping demand following 2024 hurricane season damage.

Florida shows the strongest recent concentration, with activity across Pasco County (Ridge Road landscaping and irrigation, 2.95 miles, IFB posted March 2026, due April 14), Collier County (Pelican Bay dune plantings, 56,250 native plants, Quick Quote posted and closed March 13), and Pinellas County (five-year environmental planting and monitoring services contract, RFP due July 29, 2025). Outside Florida, the City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation for plant purchases on January 28, 2026 (due February 3), and DeKalb County, Georgia issued an ITB for tennis-center reconstruction (July 13, 2026 deadline) that includes IT infrastructure but is miscoded to this plant UNSPSC category. The Pasco and Collier solicitations demonstrate active coastal dune stabilization and roadway-median beautification work; Pinellas County's five-year environmental services RFP signals ongoing invasive-species removal and native-plant restoration at multiple wetland and stormwater sites. Bidding requirements include state licensure (Florida nursery licenses, applicator certifications), E-Verify enrollment, insurance naming the jurisdiction as additional insured, and compliance with local vendor preferences where applicable (Pasco County's local-preference waiver due to state/federal funding).
