UNSPSC 10502501: Fresh cut dwarf myrtle

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

UNSPSC 10502501 Fresh cut dwarf myrtle is a Commodity code covering ornamental plant materials that state and local governments procure for landscaping, beautification, and habitat restoration projects. The recent solicitations show that state and local buyers are sourcing plant materials—including shrubs, trees, potted plants, plugs, grass seed, and groundcovers—on as-needed, when-needed bases for public facilities, rights-of-way, and environmental remediation. Cities, counties, and special-purpose districts are the primary issuing bodies, with procurement structured through IFBs and RFPs that typically allow vendors to bid on multiple product groups or line items, often with award to the lowest responsive bidder or split awards across multiple contractors where advantageous.

Recent activity spans Florida, Georgia, and Texas. The City of Altamonte Springs, Florida posted ITB 26-085-KY in August 2026 seeking landscaping plants and products—annuals, plugs, trees, and grass seed—on an as-needed basis with delivery required within 15 days, bids due July 29, 2026. Collier County, Florida issued ITB 26-8667 in June 2026 for plants, trees, and shrubs for the Pelican Bay Services Division, requesting unit pricing on 78 line items of ornamental plants, shrubs, native species, and sod with historical annual spend near $300,000 and a three-year term with two one-year renewal options. The City of Fairburn, Georgia posted IFB 26-013 in May 2026 for landscape enhancements including shrub plantings and groundcover installation in roadway medians, bids due June 16, 2026. Monroe County, Florida's RFP for invasive exotic plant removal at Marathon International Airport (due July 7, 2026) involved identification and treatment of invasive species across 35 acres—outside the narrow scope of dwarf myrtle but tagged to this code in the source. These opportunities typically require proof of Florida nursery licensing, compliance with state horticultural standards, liability insurance, and three to five project references; local-vendor preferences appear in Collier County procurement rules but are not uniformly applied across all solicitations.
