UNSPSC 10202169: Live rosselle rose bush

Live bush including the roots of the rosselle variety of rose

UNSPSC 10202169 Live rosselle rose bush is a Commodity code covering ornamental plant materials for landscaping and grounds maintenance. State and local governments buy live ornamental plants — including rose bushes, plugs, annuals, trees, and related nursery stock — primarily for median beautification, park landscaping, and municipal grounds work. The issuing bodies span county commissions, cities, and special-purpose park authorities. Procurement occurs on both project-specific and as-needed standing-order bases, with municipalities typically buying through competitive bids (IFB or ITB) and sometimes awarding to multiple vendors when cost or delivery advantages justify it. Required qualifications for vendors commonly include proof of active business registration, commercial general liability and auto liability insurance, and compliance with state procurement rules including scrutinized-company attestations and foreign-concern declarations.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Florida and Georgia. The City of Altamonte Springs, Florida posted an ITB on August 24, 2026 for landscaping plants and products including plugs, trees, annuals, potted plants, and grass seeds on an as-needed basis under solicitation ITB26085KY, with bids due July 29, 2026, across four product groups with estimated annual volumes ranging from 30 to 2,500 units per item and a contract term of up to five one-year renewals beginning October 1, 2026. The Pasco County Board of County Commissioners in Florida posted IFB IFBKM27004 on September 2, 2026 for landscape and irrigation construction along approximately 9 miles of Little Road, with bids due October 6, 2026, incorporating planting as part of a broader median beautification project. A June 2026 DeKalb County, Georgia solicitation (PE64400NONST2026000000260) for tennis center reconstruction included IT infrastructure and was unrelated to nursery plants, appearing to be a coding mismatch in the source data.
