UNSPSC 10212009: Live purple anemone

Live plant including the root ball of the purple variety of anemone

UNSPSC 10212009 Live purple anemone is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code do not reflect marine or aquatic invertebrate procurement. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code involve terrestrial landscaping, dune restoration, native plant installation, and general plant supply — services and materials bearing no relationship to live anemones. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the issuing bodies' tagging systems or that the code is being repurposed locally for unrelated plant procurement. Across the recent opportunities, state and local governments are soliciting landscape installation services (including irrigation systems, dune plantings, and environmental restoration), native plant supply, and routine plant purchases. The issuing bodies span county governments (DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; Pinellas County, Florida) and a major city (Dallas, Texas). Work types range from technical landscaping and irrigation design and installation to coastal dune stabilization using native plantings and multi-year environmental management contracts.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, where three of the four geographically specific opportunities originated in 2026 — Pasco County's Ridge Road landscaping and irrigation project (IFB, due April 14, 2026, contract ceiling $120,000), Collier County's Pelican Bay dune planting (Quick Quote, due March 13, 2026), and Pinellas County's five-year environmental planting and monitoring services (RFP, due July 29, 2025). DeKalb County, Georgia issued an ITB for IT and low-voltage infrastructure at a reconstructed tennis center (due July 13, 2026), which the source misclassified under this plant code. The City of Dallas solicited general plant purchase via informal solicitation (due February 3, 2026). Given the clear mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity, this code shows little relevant recent activity for businesses pursuing live marine invertebrate supply to state and local buyers.
