UNSPSC 10202037: Live verdi rose bush

Live bush including the roots of the verdi variety of rose

UNSPSC 10202037 Live verdi rose bush (Commodity) shows minimal alignment between the code's nominal scope and the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it. The code appears designed for procurement of ornamental rose plants, yet the opportunities posted under this code span IT infrastructure installation, landscape and irrigation system design and construction, coastal dune restoration with native species plantings, environmental site remediation and monitoring, and generic plant procurement without species specification. Only the City of Dallas Plants purchase (IFS 215260, due February 3, 2026) and the Pinellas County Environmental Planting contract (RFP 250628RFP, due July 29, 2025) involve plant material at all; the Dallas solicitation makes no species or genus specification, and the Pinellas County work focuses on invasive removal and native species restoration across wetlands and stormwater facilities rather than ornamental roses. The DeKalb County Tennis Center reconstruction (ITB 2026-076-ITB, due July 13, 2026) is entirely IT and low-voltage infrastructure work; the Pasco County Ridge Road project (IFB KM-26-047, due April 14, 2026) is landscape and irrigation installation; and the Collier County Pelican Bay dune plantings (Quick Quote QQ2026102, due March 13, 2026) addresses coastal dune stabilization with sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower—none of which are verdi roses.

Recent activity under this code is concentrated in Florida (Pasco, Collier, and Pinellas counties) and Texas (Dallas), with one Georgia opportunity (DeKalb County). The issuing bodies include county governments, a city, and a coastal services division, reflecting a diverse municipal buyer base. However, the preponderance of opportunities—four of five—involve native plant species, ecological restoration, or unspecified plant material rather than ornamental rose stock. The code assignment appears to be a tagging error across multiple jurisdictions, suggesting that verdi rose procurement under this code is not currently a meaningful business development focus in state and local government.
