UNSPSC 10202603: Live akito rose bush

Live bush including the roots of the akito variety of rose

UNSPSC 10202603 Live akito rose bush is a Commodity code that covers the supply of live ornamental plants, particularly native and adapted species used in landscaping, dune restoration, and environmental remediation projects across state and local jurisdictions. Recent solicitations show state and local governments purchasing live plants for coastal dune stabilization, roadside beautification, environmental mitigation, and general municipal landscaping. Counties, cities, and special districts issue the bulk of these solicitations, with Florida jurisdictions (Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County) and Texas cities (Dallas) appearing frequently in the recent opportunity stream. Work under this code typically includes furnishing plants as 2-inch liners, container stock, or bare-root material; delivery FOB to specified locations; and in many cases installation, initial watering, site-specific placement, and warranty periods ranging from one to two years post-delivery or establishment.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Texas, with three of the four most recent opportunities posted in March and June 2026 from Florida counties. Representative solicitations include Pasco County's Invitation for Bid for landscape and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (C.R. 524), issued March 13, 2026 with a bid opening April 14, 2026, covering supply and installation of trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover species totaling $120,000; Collier County's Quick Quote informal procurement for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project, posted March 13, 2026 with immediate bid closure, covering supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants including sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower following 2024 hurricane damage; Pinellas County's five-year Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services RFP for invasive plant removal and native plant installation at wetlands and stormwater sites, with proposal deadline July 29, 2025; and the City of Dallas's Informal Solicitation for plant purchase, posted January 28, 2026 with bids due February 3, 2026, requiring new, unopened plant material delivered FOB Dallas with a one-year post-acceptance warranty. Most recent solicitations demand Florida business licensing, E-Verify enrollment, proof of applicable professional certifications or nursery licensure, and compliance with coastal or environmental permitting requirements.
