UNSPSC 10502953: Fresh cut schefflera

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

UNSPSC 10502953 Fresh cut schefflera, a Commodity code, covers ornamental plant materials that state and local governments purchase for landscaping, grounds maintenance, and beautification projects—including cut flowers, potted plants, plugs, shrubs, grasses, and sod from licensed nurseries. Recent solicitations show municipalities and counties procuring these materials on an as-needed, when-needed basis for community beautification, roadway medians, right-of-way enhancements, and grounds upkeep. The work spans both direct plant supply contracts (where vendors provide inventory for pickup or delivery) and integrated landscaping projects (where plant materials are part of larger site-preparation and installation efforts). Issuing bodies include city procurement offices, county commissioners, and special-purpose service divisions within municipalities; the code sees activity from small cities and large counties alike, with no single repeat buyer dominating recent postings.

Recent opportunities concentrate in Florida and Georgia. The City of Altamonte Springs, Florida issued ITB 26-085-KY for nursery plants and products on an as-needed basis, with response due July 29, 2026, spanning plugs, trees, potted plants, and grass seed across four product groups. Collier County, Florida, solicited bids for plants, trees, and shrubs for the Pelican Bay Services Division under ITB 26-8667 (due July 8, 2026), with annual historical spend near $300,000 and line-item awards to lowest responsive bidders. The City of Fairburn, Georgia issued IFB 26-013 for landscape enhancements within roadway medians (due June 16, 2026) that specified shrub plantings and groundcover installation as part of a fixed-price, 120-day project. Monroe County, Florida's RFP 634 for invasive exotic plant removal at Marathon International Airport (due July 7, 2026) involved identifying and treating invasive species on 35 acres—tangentially related to plant materials through the scope of native restoration, though focused on removal rather than supply. Contracts typically require proof of Florida nursery licensing, Commercial General Liability insurance at $1 million per occurrence, compliance with state scrutinized-company lists and E-Verify, and delivery within 10–15 days for in-stock items.
