UNSPSC 10161824: Sanguinaria roja plant

Plant of the oleaceae family. It has white flowers - although some species are yellow - and has a sweet and intense fragrance.

UNSPSC 10161824 Sanguinaria roja plant is a Commodity code that nominally names a single plant species, but recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code show little activity actually procuring Sanguinaria roja specifically. Instead, the code appears in opportunities for broad ornamental plantings, dune restoration, landscape enhancements, and interior plant installations—work that encompasses native Florida species, decorative shrubs, groundcovers, and mixed vegetation installations where Sanguinaria roja is not named as a required component. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county procurement offices (Collier County, Monroe County, DeKalb County, Florida), city procurement bureaus (City of Fairburn, Georgia; City of McKinney, Texas), and education cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, Texas). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being purchased suggests either a taxonomy classification error or overly broad tagging in state and local procurement systems.

Recent opportunities span Florida, Georgia, and Texas. Collier County has posted multiple plantings solicitations, including ITB 26-8667 for plants, trees, and shrubs for Pelican Bay Services (due July 8, 2026) and the Bay Colony Dune Plantings Quick Quote (due March 13, 2026), both emphasizing Florida-licensed nursery sourcing and native species. Monroe County issued RFP 634 for invasive exotic plant removal at Marathon International Airport (due July 7, 2026). The City of Fairburn, Georgia posted IFB 26-013 for landscape enhancements and median improvements (due June 16, 2026) specifying shrubs and groundcover installations. The City of McKinney, Texas solicited ITB 26-42 for interior plant services at City Hall (due February 25, 2026), offering live or commercial-grade faux plant options. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas issued EDACT2628 for educational activities and supplies with an estimated $40.677 billion expenditure, a cooperative vehicle unrelated to Sanguinaria roja. The code shows fragmented activity across multiple jurisdictions with no pattern of repeat purchasing of the specific plant species the code nominally describes.
