UNSPSC 10502956: Fresh cut skimmia

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

UNSPSC 10502956 Fresh cut skimmia is a Commodity code that encompasses ornamental plant materials and shrub installations for landscape beautification, dune restoration, and interior plantings across state and local jurisdictions. State and local governments procure under this code for a broad range of horticultural work—site preparation and native species planting for coastal dune stabilization following hurricane damage, median and right-of-way beautification projects involving specimen shrubs and groundcovers, invasive plant removal and habitat restoration initiatives, and interior plantscaping for municipal buildings. Issuing bodies include county governments (Collier County, Monroe County, DeKalb County, Florida), cities (City of Fairburn, City of McKinney), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving school districts (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). Most recent activity shows Collier County as a repeat buyer, appearing in three separate solicitations for Pelican Bay services and dune plantings. Contract structures vary from firm three-year terms with renewal options to single-project awards with 120-day completion windows, and from cooperative catalog discount agreements serving multiple institutions to competitive RFPs with hourly crew-based pricing models.

Recent opportunities span Florida, Georgia, and Texas. Representative solicitations include Collier County's ITB 26-8667 for Plants, Trees and Shrubs for Pelican Bay Services (due July 8, 2026) covering 78 line items of plant materials from 4-inch pots to 25-gallon containers with approximately $300,000 in historical annual spend; the City of Fairburn's IFB 26-013 for Landscape Enhancements within four roadway medians (due June 16, 2026) specifying 120 Autumn Joy Stonecrop, 107 Color Guard Adam's Needle, and 968 square feet of Variegated Lilyturf groundcover; Monroe County's RFP 634 for Invasive Exotic Plant Removal at Marathon International Airport (due July 7, 2026) covering approximately 35 acres of species including seaside mahoe and Brazilian pepper across three phases with maintenance treatments through a maximum $300,000 contract; and Collier County's coastal dune planting project (due March 13, 2026) involving supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants including sea oats and railroad vine across 4,500 linear feet. Florida dominates recent activity, followed by Georgia and Texas.
