UNSPSC 10202703: Live ambiance rose bush

Live bush including the roots of the ambiance variety of rose

UNSPSC 10202703 Live ambiance rose bush, a Commodity code, shows limited recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. Of three recent opportunities tagged under this code, only one—Pasco County Board of County Commissioners' IFB for median landscape and irrigation construction along Little Road—involves live plantings as part of a broader landscape installation project. The Altamonte Springs ITB for nursery plants and products spans annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seeds, and trees on an as-needed basis but does not isolate rose bushes as a line item. The third opportunity, DeKalb County's IT and Low Voltage Infrastructure reconstruction at the DeKalb Tennis Center, is plainly unrelated to plant procurement and appears to be miscoded. State and local governments buying under this code are purchasing live ornamental plantings as components of landscape construction and maintenance work—typically median installations, park improvements, and grounds beautification—rather than rose bushes as standalone commodity purchases.

Recent activity spans Florida and Georgia. The Pasco County project (IFB IFBKM27004, due October 6, 2026) encompasses landscape design, planting, and irrigation for approximately 9 miles of medians. The City of Altamonte Springs (ITB 26085KY, due July 29, 2026, re-bid) is procuring landscaping plants and products on an as-needed basis with delivery to zip codes 32701 and 32714, requiring $1,000,000 Commercial General Liability insurance, active Florida Sunbiz registration, and compliance with the State of Florida's Scrutinized List and Federal Excluded Parties List; the contract runs October 1, 2026 for an initial one-year term with four optional one-year renewals. The code shows sparse recent solicitation activity, suggesting that rose bush procurement—if occurring—is either bundled into broader landscape contracts or procured under higher-level family or class codes rather than at the commodity level.
