UNSPSC 10201718: Live french vanilla rose bush

Live bush including the roots of the french vanilla variety of rose

UNSPSC 10201718 Live french vanilla rose bush (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code involve landscape and irrigation construction for roadway medians, general nursery plants and landscaping products on an as-needed basis, and information technology and low-voltage infrastructure for a recreation facility — none of which center on live french vanilla rose bushes as a distinct product line. The code's nominal scope is a single horticultural variety, yet the opportunities it tags span broad landscape construction, multi-category plant procurement, and facility IT infrastructure, indicating either systematic miscoding or a fundamental mismatch between the code's definition and its actual use in state and local purchasing.

Issuers posting under this code include Pasco County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), the City of Altamonte Springs (Florida), and DeKalb County (Georgia). The two landscape-related opportunities — Pasco County's IFB for Little Road Medians Phase II landscape and irrigation construction (due October 6, 2026) and Altamonte Springs' ITB 26-085-KY for nursery plants and products on an as-needed basis (initial one-year term commencing October 1, 2026) — suggest some activity in horticultural procurement in Florida and Georgia, but the tennis center IT infrastructure bid for DeKalb County demonstrates that the code captures work wholly unrelated to plant material. Recent activity is sparse, geographically limited to Florida and Georgia, and concentrated among a handful of municipal and county buyers rather than showing broad state or regional engagement. Practitioners should verify code assignment during pre-bid Q&A cycles and consider whether higher-tier codes better capture the intended scope.
