UNSPSC 10202861: Live rubicon spray rose bush

Live bush including the roots of the rubicon spray variety of rose

UNSPSC 10202861 Live rubicon spray rose bush is a Commodity code that encompasses the supply and installation of ornamental plant materials—primarily trees, shrubs, groundcover, and specialty native and coastal dune species—for landscaping, environmental restoration, irrigation system integration, and coastal stabilization projects. State and local governments procure under this code through a mix of issuing bodies: county departments (DeKalb County, Pasco County, Collier County, and Pinellas County in the recent record), city procurement offices (Dallas), and county environmental or stormwater divisions. The work solicited ranges from straightforward supply-only purchases to complex, multi-year environmental restoration contracts requiring native plant installation, invasive species removal, site monitoring, and post-planting maintenance with regulatory compliance. Recent opportunities show plants being specified by precise species, quantity, spacing, and installation standards, often integrated with irrigation systems, erosion control infrastructure (posts and rope), signage, and warranty periods.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Texas. In Florida, Pasco County's IFB for Ridge Road landscaping and irrigation (response due April 14, 2026) specified installation of trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover to Florida Department of Agriculture Grade Number 1 standards across 15 medians with a $120,000 contract ceiling. Collier County's Quick Quote for Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings (due March 13, 2026) sought approximately 56,250 native dune plants including sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower for post-hurricane coastal stabilization. Pinellas County posted an RFP for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services (2025–2030) seeking native plant installation and invasive species removal at mitigation sites and wetlands. In Texas, the City of Dallas issued an Informal Solicitation for the Purchase of Plants (due February 3, 2026) with FOB delivery required and no alternatives or substitutes permitted. A fourth opportunity—DeKalb County's ITB for tennis center reconstruction—was tagged under this code but focuses on IT and low-voltage infrastructure and shows no landscape or plant content, indicating a classification mismatch unrelated to the code's nominal scope.
