UNSPSC 10212810: Live plume red celosia

Live plant including the root ball of the plume red variety of celosias

UNSPSC 10212810 Live plume red celosia, a Commodity code, encompasses flowering plants and groundcover species for landscape and environmental restoration projects that state and local governments acquire for site beautification, dune stabilization, and ecological mitigation work. The recent solicitations show that state and local buyers are procuring these plants as components of larger landscaping, irrigation, and native habitat restoration initiatives rather than as standalone commodity purchases. Counties, cities, and special-purpose districts issue the work—primarily Florida jurisdictions (Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County) alongside the City of Dallas and Georgia's DeKalb County—and the scale ranges from small plant-supply RFQs to multi-year environmental services contracts that embed planting as one task among removal, monitoring, and maintenance obligations. Representative work includes Pasco County's IFB for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (due April 14, 2026), Collier County's Quick Quote procurement for coastal dune restoration planting following 2024 hurricane damage (due March 13, 2026), and the City of Dallas's informal solicitation for plant purchases (due February 3, 2026).

The code sees concentrated recent activity in Florida, particularly in coastal counties managing post-hurricane restoration and stormwater beautification, alongside scattered activity in Texas and Georgia. Pinellas County's five-year RFP for environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services (due July 29, 2025) represents a larger contract structure where live plume red celosia and other native species would be supplied as part of wetland and stormwater-pond restoration work. Collier County's Bay Colony Dune Plantings Quick Quote specifies approximately 56,250 native dune plants including sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower at 24-inch centers across coastal foredunes and crests, with contractors required to demonstrate relevant dune restoration experience, maintain Florida nursery sourcing, and comply with sea turtle nesting protocols. The City of Dallas procurement requested new, unopened plants with firm pricing for thirty days and one-year warranty coverage, shipping FOB to a Dallas facility. Recent opportunities signal steady demand from coastal and municipal buyers for native and ornamental plantings tied to infrastructure projects and environmental compliance work, with response timelines compressed and compliance documentation requirements strict.
