UNSPSC 10502125: Fresh cut zebra grass

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

UNSPSC 10502125 Fresh cut zebra grass is a Commodity code that state and local governments source primarily as part of broader landscaping plants and services procurement, though the recent solicitation activity under this specific code shows limited direct purchasing. The work actually being bought includes ornamental grasses, shrubs, and plants for public grounds beautification, right-of-way improvements, and invasive species management across parks, airports, and roadway medians. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under related plant and landscaping codes—including counties, cities, and special-purpose districts—typically structure purchases on an as-needed, when-needed basis with no guaranteed minimum volumes, accepting bids from multiple vendors and awarding by line item or product group to the lowest responsive bidder. Common procurement vehicles include competitive sealed ITBs and RFPs with delivery windows of 10 to 30 days and strict compliance requirements around Florida Department of Agriculture licensing, nursery registration, insurance minimums (typically $1 million commercial general liability), and proof of active business tax receipts.

Recent activity shows purchasing concentrated in Florida, with the City of Altamonte Springs, Hillsborough County, and Collier County each issuing multiple plant and landscaping solicitations in 2026. The Altamonte Springs ITB26085KY (due July 29, 2026) sought annuals, plugs, trees, and grass seed on a four-product-group basis with catalog-price discounting; Collier County's ITB 26-8667 (due July 8, 2026) requested 78 line items of ornamental plants, shrubs, grasses, and sod with historical annual spending around $300,000; and Hillsborough County's ITB2600339 (due August 3, 2026, estimated value $544,532.50) focused on herbicide spraying and invasive species control rather than fresh-cut ornamental grasses. Georgia municipalities including Fairburn and DeKalb County posted roadway median and park landscaping enhancement work during the same period. The code itself shows no direct recent solicitations explicitly for fresh cut zebra grass; the UNSPSC categorization may not align with how jurisdictions currently tag grass and ornamental-plant procurement.
