UNSPSC 10202362: Live orchestra rose bush

Live bush including the roots of the orchestra variety of rose

UNSPSC 10202362 Live orchestra rose bush is a Commodity code that shows a significant disconnect between its nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The three recent opportunities posted under this code involve landscape and irrigation construction, nursery plant procurement, and IT infrastructure installation — none of which relate to the code's literal name. State and local governments are using this code to solicit general landscaping plants, seeds, trees, plugs, and irrigation work rather than specialized horticultural products. The issuing bodies include county governments, municipalities, and county departments, indicating a mix of local and county-level procurement across facilities maintenance and infrastructure projects.

Activity appears concentrated in Florida and Georgia, based on recent postings. The City of Altamonte Springs, Florida solicited nursery plants and products (annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seeds, and trees) on an as-needed basis under ITB 26-085-KY with a response date of July 29, 2026, offering four product groups with bidders able to propose for one or more groups; the contract term runs October 1, 2026 through five years with one-year renewal options. Pasco County Board of County Commissioners issued IFB KM27004 for median landscape and irrigation construction Phase II along approximately 9 miles of Little Road with bids due October 6, 2026. DeKalb County, Georgia posted ITB 2026-076-ITB for DeKalb Tennis Center reconstruction with an IT and Low Voltage Infrastructure component, bids due July 13, 2026. The code's use for IT infrastructure work in particular suggests potential tagging misalignment rather than actual procurement of rose bushes or specialized plant material.
