UNSPSC 10161647: Verbena plant

Plant from the verbenaceae family. Flowers are white-lilac to violet colors and are grouped in terminal heads which when mature are elongated forming spikes.

UNSPSC 10161647 Verbena plant is a Commodity code that captures state and local government purchases of verbena plants and related native plantings for landscaping, environmental restoration, and coastal dune stabilization projects. The recent solicitations show that state and local buyers procure verbena and other native plants as part of broader environmental and landscape installation contracts rather than as standalone commodity purchases. Counties and cities are the primary issuing bodies under this code, with activity concentrated in Florida — Pasco County, Collier County, and Pinellas County have posted multiple landscaping and environmental restoration RFPs and IFBs that include native plant installation, dune plantings, and invasive species removal with native species replacement. The City of Dallas also solicited plants directly, though without detail on species. Environmental restoration and dune stabilization dominate the scope, driven by post-hurricane recovery efforts and regulatory wetland and stormwater permitting requirements.

Recent opportunities include Pasco County's IFB for landscaping and irrigation along Ridge Road (due April 14, 2026), which specified installation of trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover species to Florida Department of Agriculture Grade Number 1 standards across 15 medians for $120,000; Collier County's Quick Quote for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project (due March 13, 2026), which called for supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants including sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower across 225,000 square feet of coastal dune following 2024 hurricane damage; Pinellas County's five-year RFP for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services (due July 29, 2025), which sought native plant installation and invasive species removal at mitigation sites, wetlands, and stormwater ponds; and the City of Dallas's informal solicitation for plants (due February 3, 2026) with FOB delivery to a specified address and one-year warranty from acceptance. Florida dominates recent activity, with secondary posting in Texas, reflecting coastal dune restoration priorities and ongoing stormwater and wetland management programs.
