UNSPSC 10502300: Fresh cut ivy

Ivy that has been cut to provide contrast to flowers in various floral arrangements

UNSPSC 10502300 Fresh cut ivy, a Class code, spans landscaping plants and related vegetation-control services that state and local governments procure on an as-needed basis for grounds maintenance, beautification, and invasive-species management. Recent solicitations under this code include supply contracts for ornamental plants, shrubs, trees, and grass seed in bulk quantities (measured in units per year or annual dollar spend), as well as labor-intensive services such as herbicide spraying and invasive-plant removal. The issuing bodies are predominantly county and city procurement offices managing parks, right-of-way maintenance, airport grounds, and drainage infrastructure; school districts and education cooperatives also participate through cooperative purchasing vehicles that bundle educational supplies alongside grounds-maintenance items. Collier County, Hillsborough County, and the City of Altamonte Springs, Florida appear as repeat buyers, while DeKalb County and the City of Fairburn, Georgia, and Monroe County, Florida represent geographic diversity in recent activity.
