UNSPSC 10202143: Live kerio rose bush

Live bush including the roots of the kerio variety of rose

UNSPSC 10202143 Live kerio rose bush is a Commodity code that covers individual plant species for landscaping and grounds maintenance work. State and local governments buy live ornamental plants — roses, shrubs, trees, perennials, and related nursery stock — through this code as inputs to landscape construction, median beautification, park development, and grounds upkeep projects. The issuing bodies include county commissioners' offices managing infrastructure medians and maintenance, municipalities procuring plants for public grounds and recreational facilities, and parks departments. Procurement typically occurs via ITB (Invitation for Bid) or RFP, either as direct material purchases for immediate planting work or as standing supply agreements on an as-needed basis with preset catalogs and discounted pricing structures. Vendors must often carry current business registration, commercial general liability insurance, and proof of E-Verify compliance.

Recent solicitations show activity concentrated in Florida. The City of Altamonte Springs posted ITB 26-085-KY on August 24, 2026 (bids due July 29, 2026) for landscaping plants and products including annuals, potted plants, plugs, and trees under a one-year renewable contract commencing October 1, 2026, with delivery required within 15 days for in-stock items to zip codes 32701 and 32714. Pasco County Board of County Commissioners issued IFB KM27004 on September 2, 2026 (bids due October 6, 2026) for median landscape and irrigation construction Phase II along approximately 9 miles of Little Road, encompassing landscape design, planting, and irrigation system installation. A third recent posting — DeKalb County's ITB 2026-076-ITB for DeKalb Tennis Center reconstruction in Georgia — appears unrelated to live plant procurement and likely represents a data-tagging error, as it concerns IT and low voltage infrastructure rather than nursery stock.
