UNSPSC 10502909: Fresh cut african boxwood

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

UNSPSC 10502909 Fresh cut African boxwood, a Commodity code, covers supply and installation of ornamental plant materials for landscape beautification and restoration projects at state and local facilities, though the recent opportunities block shows minimal direct solicitation for this specific species and instead reflects broader landscape and horticultural procurement across multiple jurisdictions. State and local governments soliciting under this code and closely related plant-material categories include county boards of commissioners (Collier County, Monroe County, DeKalb County), municipalities (City of Fairburn, City of McKinney), and regional education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). The work ranges from routine landscape maintenance and median improvements to specialized coastal dune restoration and invasive species removal, with plant materials sourced from Florida-licensed nurseries where required and installed according to site-specific environmental and aesthetic specifications. Most solicitations emphasize compliance with state horticultural standards, use of native or climate-appropriate species, and warranty periods on plant establishment.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with secondary activity in Texas. Representative opportunities include Collier County's ITB 26-8667 (Plants, Trees and Shrubs for Pelican Bay Services, due July 8, 2026) seeking 78 line items of ornamental plants and shrubs with unit pricing and a three-year contract term under FOB Destination delivery; the City of Fairburn's IFB 26-013 (Landscape Enhancements—Median Improvements, due June 16, 2026) for shrub plantings and groundcover across four roadway medians with a mandatory site visit on May 28, 2026; Monroe County's RFP 634 (Invasive Exotic Plant Removal at Marathon International Airport, due July 7, 2026) for identification and removal of invasive species across 35 acres with a mandatory pre-bid meeting on June 3, 2026; and Collier County's informal Quick Quote (Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings, due March 13, 2026) for supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants including sea oats and dune sunflower following 2024 hurricane damage. The code shows active procurement but does not capture substantial volume under the African boxwood designation specifically; most recent opportunities solicit mixed plant materials or native species suited to local ecological contexts.
