UNSPSC 10151922 Gaillardia seed or seedling is a Commodity code covering native and specialty seed procurement by state natural-resource and wildlife agencies. State and local governments use this code to source seed stock for habitat restoration, prairie management, and park operations. The work encompasses blanket contracts for recurring seed supply, often on an as-needed basis with no guaranteed minimum quantities, and one-time surplus seed sales. Issuing bodies are primarily state resource departments and regional authorities — Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Texas A&M Forest Service, and county conservation bodies — rather than municipal or school district buyers.

Recent activity centers on Texas and Wisconsin. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has issued at least two IFBs for native prairie seeds (posted August 5 and September 1, 2026, with response dates August 12 and September 15, 2026 respectively), covering 39 to 50 native grass and forb species including Big Bluestem, Switchgrass, Indian Grass, Purple Prairie Clover, and wildflower species. Both contracts run September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027 with optional twelve-month extensions; seeds must arrive within fourteen working days of order placement to designated TPWD locations, packaged in bags not exceeding fifty pounds, with unit pricing on an FOB destination basis inclusive of shipping and fuel surcharges. Dane County, Wisconsin issued an RFB for surplus cream gentian seeds (posted May 11, 2026, due June 2, 2026) with eight seed lots tested for purity and germination by the Wisconsin Crop Improvement Association. Texas A&M Forest Service posted IFB 27005 for East Texas Seeds (posted October 15, 2026, due October 30, 2026), though the scope details remain in restricted attachments.
