UNSPSC 10502949: Fresh cut florida long ruscus

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

UNSPSC 10502949 Fresh cut florida long ruscus, a Commodity code, describes ornamental plant materials—specifically long ruscus and related fresh-cut foliage—that state and local governments procure for landscaping, grounds beautification, and interior plant services. Recent solicitations under this code show state and local buyers purchasing native and ornamental plant materials, decorative plantings, and related landscape installation services, though the fresh-cut ruscus specification itself appears infrequently in current activity; instead, buyers are soliciting broader plant material categories including shrubs, groundcover, native dune plants, and specimens for both exterior and interior applications.

The issuing bodies span counties, cities, and special-purpose districts across Florida and Georgia. Collier County, Florida has posted multiple plant-procurement opportunities including an ITB for plants, trees, and shrubs for Pelican Bay Services (due July 8, 2026) with historical annual expenditures near $300,000, and a Quick Quote for dune plantings (due March 13, 2026) involving 56,250 native plants across 225,000 square feet of coastal restoration. The City of Fairburn, Georgia issued an IFB for landscape enhancements and median improvements (due June 16, 2026) with ornamental shrubs and groundcover installations, and the City of McKinney, Texas solicited turnkey interior plant services for City Hall (due February 25, 2026). Monroe County, Florida's RFP for invasive exotic plant removal at Marathon International Airport (due July 7, 2026) addresses restoration of native habitat through removal and follow-up maintenance, indicating a secondary market in plant remediation services. The recent-opportunities block shows activity concentrated in Florida and Georgia, with representation from Texas through educational and municipal procurement. Current purchasing is on an as-required or project basis rather than standing supply agreements, with contract terms ranging from one-year to three-year initial periods with renewal options.
