UNSPSC 10152012: Ceibo seed or seedlings

Leguminous family plant seed, seeds are kept in curved pods. Carmine red flowers.

UNSPSC 10152012 Ceibo seed or seedlings is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure tree and plant seedlings, native seeds for habitat restoration, and related growing and installation services. Recent solicitations show demand for containerized seedlings of specified species, bare-root or container-grown saplings for public landscaping projects, acorn and seed collection and processing, and integrated planting and maintenance services with multi-year warranty periods. The issuing bodies are diverse: state natural resources departments, county boards of commissioners, municipal park and recreation departments, schools, and special authorities. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources appears as a repeat buyer with multiple high-volume requests for custom-grown conifer and hardwood seedlings for reforestation. Counties and cities dominate the volume for smaller-scale street tree and landscape planting work, often pairing seed or seedling procurement with furnishing, planting, and establishment-period maintenance in single contracts.

Activity concentrates in Michigan, Florida, and the broader Southeast, with recent opportunities spanning Georgia, North Carolina, Texas, and Wisconsin. Representative solicitations include the Michigan Department of Natural Resources' RFP 26-2354 for containerized seedlings and services (proposals due August 17, 2026), a five-year contract valued at $6.25 million; the City of Jackson, Michigan's ENG 25-04C Street Tree Purchase & Planting Rebid #2 (proposals due September 30, 2026), covering furnishing, delivery, planting, and one-year maintenance of approximately 200 trees across 37 specified species; and the Michigan DNR's RFP 26-2320 for Waterloo and Lake Hudson native tree seed collection and growing (awarded to Wildtype Design Native Plants and Seed LTD for $31,415.00), comprising black oak seeds, white oak container plants, and flowering dogwood under a two-year term with renewal option. Collier County, Florida has solicited multiple rounds for furnishing and installing trees and palms in rights-of-way, with ITB 26-8667 for plants, trees, and shrubs showing historical annual expenditures near $300,000. Hillsborough County, Florida's ITB 26-00257 for tree replanting of scenic roads is valued at $742,380.00 for a one-year period with six-month establishment and 12-month warranty. All recent opportunities require compliance with Florida or state landscape and nursery standards, E-Verify enrollment, proof of experience, comprehensive general liability insurance, and performance or payment bonds where contract value exceeds thresholds. Davis-Bacon and prevailing wage compliance is mandatory on federally funded projects.
