UNSPSC 10202142: Live karusso rose bush

Live bush including the roots of the karusso variety of rose

UNSPSC 10202142 Live karusso rose bush is a Commodity code that nominally names a single ornamental plant species, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with that narrow scope. The opportunities instead span a broad range of landscape and environmental planting work — including coastal dune restoration with native species, roadway median and right-of-way landscaping and irrigation installation, invasive plant removal paired with native plant installation and long-term site monitoring, and general plant procurement for municipal grounds maintenance. Issuing bodies include county governments (DeKalb County, Pasco County, Collier County, and Pinellas County, all in Florida or Georgia), a major city (Dallas), and special-purpose environmental management authorities. The work ranges from one-time supply and installation contracts to multi-year performance-based agreements with ongoing monitoring and maintenance obligations.

Recent opportunities cluster in Florida and Georgia. Pasco County issued IFB KM-26-047 in March 2026 for landscape and irrigation installation along Ridge Road with a contract ceiling of $120,000 and an April 14, 2026 response deadline. Collier County solicited dune planting and coastal restoration services via Quick Quote in March 2026 for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony project, requiring native species installation across 225,000 square feet with a March 13, 2026 response deadline. Pinellas County issued RFP 250628RFP for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services with a July 29, 2025 proposal deadline. DeKalb County posted ITB 2026-076-ITB in June 2026 for reconstruction of the DeKalb Tennis Center, though the scope named emphasizes IT and low-voltage infrastructure rather than landscaping. The City of Dallas issued Informal Solicitation 215260 in January 2026 for plant purchase with a February 3, 2026 deadline, specifying new, unopened stock with no substitutes accepted. The code shows active but scattered recent activity across different service types loosely grouped under "plants," suggesting that state and local procurement offices are using this code inconsistently to tag opportunities ranging from materials supply to complex ecological restoration contracts.
