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

UNSPSC 10502803 Fresh cut new zealand pittosporum, a Commodity code, encompasses ornamental flowering and foliage plant materials that state and local governments procure for landscaping, beautification, and habitat restoration projects. Recent solicitations reveal that municipalities and county agencies buy fresh cut and potted plant materials—including shrubs, groundcover, specimen plants, and related nursery stock—on an as-needed basis for right-of-way improvements, public facility grounds, and environmental mitigation work. The issuing-body mix spans city procurement departments, county environmental and public works divisions, and special-purpose districts managing airport and park facilities. Jurisdictions typically structure these purchases as indefinite-quantity contracts with unit pricing for individual plant varieties and sizes, often awarding by line item to multiple responsive bidders when price is competitive.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida, where the City of Altamonte Springs (ITB 26085KY, due July 29, 2026) solicited bids on landscaping plants and products including potted plants, trees, and plugs for on-site delivery within 15–30 days, with an initial one-year term and four renewal options; Collier County (ITB 26-8667, due July 8, 2026) sought unit pricing for 78 line items of ornamental plants, shrubs, and native Florida species with historical annual expenditures around $300,000; and Monroe County (RFP 634, due July 7, 2026) issued a request for invasive exotic plant removal services at Marathon International Airport spanning identification, treatment, and three phases of follow-up maintenance. A Georgia municipality, the City of Fairburn (IFB 26-013, due June 16, 2026), requested landscaping enhancements including shrub plantings (Autumn Joy Stonecrop and Color Guard Adam's Needle) and groundcover installation for roadway medians. Contracts typically require Commercial General Liability insurance ($500,000–$2,000,000), Florida nursery licensing and certification where applicable, three to five client references, and E-Verify compliance; delivery commitments range from 10–30 days on FOB Destination terms, with firm pricing during initial contract years and CPI-indexed adjustments thereafter.
