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 is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of ornamental plants and plant materials for landscaping, grounds beautification, and habitat restoration projects. The recent solicitations show governments buying live plants in various sizes—from small potted specimens to larger container stock—for installation in median improvements, dune restoration, interior spaces, and general grounds maintenance, with emphasis on Florida native species where applicable and compliance with state horticultural standards. Issuing bodies include county procurement offices (Collier County, Monroe County, DeKalb County in Georgia), city procurement departments (City of McKinney, City of Fairburn), and special-purpose district purchasing cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative serving Texas school districts). The work spans turnkey installation contracts with maintenance warranties, invasive species removal paired with native plantings on large acreage, and catalog-style discount agreements for educational supplies.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Texas, with emerging opportunities in Georgia. Representative solicitations include the Collier County Board of County Commissioners' ITB 26-8667 (due July 8, 2026) for 78 line items of ornamental plants, shrubs, native species, and sod with approximately $300,000 in historical annual expenditures and a three-year contract term with two one-year renewal options; Monroe County's RFP 634 (due July 7, 2026) for invasive exotic plant removal and native dune restoration at Marathon International Airport, with a mandatory pre-bid meeting on June 3, 2026, and a maximum contract value of $300,000; the City of Fairburn's IFB 26-013 (due June 16, 2026) for landscape enhancements including shrub and groundcover plantings with a mandatory site visit on May 28, 2026; and the City of McKinney's ITB 26-42 (due February 25, 2026) for interior plant installation across City Hall. Cooperative purchasing vehicles serving education systems, such as Region 7's EDACT2628 bid (due July 30, 2026), layer in larger aggregate spend through catalog discount arrangements, though the educational supplies category spans broader product families beyond plant materials alone.
