UNSPSC 10211700: Live alstroemerias

Live plants including the root ball of alstroemerias

UNSPSC 10211700 Live alstroemerias is a Class code covering the procurement of live flower plants, but recent state and local opportunities show the code is being applied to a much broader range of landscape and environmental planting work than the nominal scope suggests. State and local governments soliciting under this code are actually buying landscaping installation and maintenance services, coastal dune restoration using native plantings, environmental site remediation with native species, and bulk plant material supply — encompassing labor, materials, equipment, and long-term site management rather than alstroemeria flowers alone. Issuing bodies include county governments (DeKalb County Georgia, Pasco County Florida, Collier County Florida, Pinellas County Florida), cities (Dallas Texas), and county departments focused on parks, infrastructure, environmental management, and stormwater treatment. The code appears to serve as a catch-all taxonomy entry for any vegetation-related procurement, from small quick-quote plant purchases to multi-year environmental restoration contracts.

Geographic activity clusters heavily in Florida, with four of five recent opportunities posted by Florida counties and municipalities (Pasco, Collier, Pinellas) alongside Georgia and Texas activity. Representative recent solicitations include Pasco County's IFB for landscape and irrigation installation on Ridge Road (C.R. 524), a 2.95-mile median and right-of-way planting project due April 14, 2026, with contract value capped at $120,000.00; Collier County's quick-quote procurement for Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings, a coastal dune stabilization project with approximately 56,250 native dune plants, due March 13, 2026; Pinellas County's RFP for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services, a five-year contract spanning 2025–2030 covering invasive plant removal, native installation, and monitoring at wetlands and stormwater sites, with proposals due July 29, 2025; and the City of Dallas's informal solicitation for plant purchase (IFS 215260), due February 3, 2026. The code shows consistent activity but lacks standardization — opportunities range from commodity plant supply to complex environmental services with certifications, bond requirements, and performance specifications.
