UNSPSC 10502918: Fresh cut dusty miller

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

UNSPSC 10502918 Fresh cut dusty miller (Commodity) covers ornamental plant materials for landscape and interior beautification that state and local governments source through both formal solicitations and informal procurement processes. The code captures the supply of specialty cut ornamental plants — and more broadly, potted and containerized plant stock including shrubs, grasses, groundcover, and native species — that counties, cities, and special districts purchase for public spaces, parks, medians, coastal restoration, and municipal facilities. Recent solicitations under this code span landscape construction (median improvements, dune stabilization), facility beautification (interior plantings for municipal buildings), and conservation work (invasive species removal and native habitat restoration), reflecting a mix of ongoing maintenance contracts and one-time restoration projects.

Issuing bodies include Florida counties (Collier County appears twice with large-scale projects), Georgia municipalities (City of Fairburn, DeKalb County), Texas cities (City of McKinney), and regional education cooperatives serving multiple school districts (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative). Collier County's Pelican Bay Services Division has posted at least two relevant opportunities — a three-year standing order ITB for plant materials worth approximately $300,000 annually (due July 8, 2026) and a coastal dune restoration Quick Quote for native plants across 225,000 square feet (due March 13, 2026). The City of McKinney's ITB for interior plants at City Hall (due February 25, 2026) and the City of Fairburn's IFB for landscape enhancements with specific shrub and groundcover line items (due June 16, 2026) represent municipal facility and public-right-of-way work. Monroe County, Florida's RFP for invasive exotic plant removal at Marathon International Airport (due July 7, 2026, maximum $300,000) shows environmental restoration demand. Geographic activity concentrates in Florida and Texas, with secondary activity in Georgia. All contracts require sourcing from Florida-licensed nurseries (where applicable), compliance with state agricultural standards, specimen-quality materials free of disease, and performance bonds or bid bonds scaled to contract value.
