UNSPSC 10502004: Fresh cut green hosta foliage

A type of foliage that has been cut to provide contrast to flowers in various floral arrangements

UNSPSC 10502004 Fresh cut green hosta foliage (Commodity) covers the supply of ornamental foliage and plant materials for landscaping, grounds beautification, and interior plant installation — though recent state and local solicitations under this code emphasize broader horticultural scope including shrubs, native species, groundcovers, and dune-restoration plantings rather than hosta foliage specifically. Issuers soliciting under this code span county governments, municipalities, and special-purpose districts, with Collier County, Florida appearing twice in recent activity for both general grounds maintenance plantings and specialized coastal dune restoration. Work ranges from routine grounds beautification (medians, rights-of-way) to invasive-species removal and hurricane-recovery dune stabilization, with contractors typically furnishing plant materials from licensed nurseries, managing installation, and often providing warranties or follow-up maintenance. Cities and counties are the primary buyers; school districts and cooperative purchasing vehicles also appear but with less frequency in horticultural procurement under this code.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with additional solicitations in Texas. Representative opportunities include Collier County's ITB 26-8667 for plants, trees, and shrubs for Pelican Bay Services (due July 8, 2026), requesting unit-priced bids for 78 line items with annual historical spend near $300,000 and three-year contract terms; the City of Fairburn's IFB 26-013 for landscape enhancements and median improvements (due June 16, 2026), specifying shrub and groundcover installation across four roadway medians with a one-year plant warranty; and Monroe County's RFP 634 for invasive exotic plant removal at Marathon International Airport (due July 7, 2026), a specialized three-phase project addressing 35 acres of conservation land with $300,000 maximum contract value and ongoing maintenance treatments through 2028. Collier County also issued a Quick Quote procurement (QQ2026102) for dune plantings following 2024 hurricane damage, requiring supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants across 4,500 linear feet of coastal dune. These opportunities indicate steady demand for horticultural services tied to both routine maintenance and recovery/restoration projects, with contract values ranging from project-specific awards to three-year supply agreements and cooperative purchasing frameworks.
