UNSPSC 10213900: Live gerberas

Live plants including the root ball of gerberas

UNSPSC 10213900 Live gerberas is a Class code that nominally names a single ornamental flower product, but recent state and local opportunities show no demand for gerberas specifically. Instead, the code tags solicitations for broad landscape installation and environmental planting services, including native dune restoration, stormwater pond vegetation management, invasive species removal, and general grounds planting for parks and public facilities. The issuing bodies are predominantly Florida county governments—DeKalb County (Georgia), Pasco County, Collier County, and Pinellas County—alongside the City of Dallas. The work ranges from small-scale plant procurement (such as the City of Dallas's purchase of plants for delivery to a single address) to large-scale ecological restoration involving thousands of native plants, site preparation, irrigation design and installation, and multi-year monitoring and maintenance contracts. One issuing body, Pinellas County, solicits environmental services on an as-needed basis under a five-year contract vehicle; others use traditional IFB and informal quote processes for one-time or project-specific work.

Recent opportunities show concentrated activity in Florida, particularly across four coastal and metro counties (Pasco, Collier, Pinellas, and DeKalb in the Atlanta region). Pasco County issued an ITB for landscape and irrigation installation on Ridge Road with a contract cap of $120,000 and an April 14, 2026 response date; Collier County solicited dune plant supply and installation (approximately 56,250 native plants) via Quick Quote with a March 13, 2026 deadline; Pinellas County posted an RFP for five-year environmental planting and maintenance services on June 30, 2025 with a July 29, 2025 proposal due date; and the City of Dallas issued an informal solicitation for plant purchase with a February 3, 2026 response date. The code shows a mismatch between its nominal scope (gerberas as a single product line) and actual procurement demand (landscape design, installation, and ecosystem management services), suggesting this code is a tagging error in most recent postings rather than a true indicator of gerbera demand.
