UNSPSC 10214400: Live gypsophilias

Live plants including the root ball of gypsophilia

UNSPSC 10214400 Live gypsophilias, a Class code, does not align with actual state and local procurement activity in the recent solicitation record. The code nominally describes live flowering plants (gypsophila), yet the posted opportunities span IT and low-voltage infrastructure installation at a county tennis center, roadside landscaping and irrigation systems, coastal dune restoration plantings, environmental wetland and stormwater site management with native species, and bulk plant procurement for municipal use. The sourced opportunities reflect landscaping, native plant installation, site restoration, invasive species removal, and general plant supply—scopes that fall outside the narrow botanical classification the code name implies. State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include county boards of commissioners (Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County, DeKalb County) and municipal procurement offices (City of Dallas), with the mix tilted toward county-level environmental and parks departments managing restoration, maintenance, and landscaping projects.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia. Pasco County issued an IFB on March 13, 2026 (due April 14, 2026) for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road for 2.95 miles, with a contract ceiling of $120,000 and a local vendor preference program available. Collier County posted a Quick Quote on March 13, 2026 (due the same day) for Pelican Bay coastal dune plantings spanning approximately 225,000 square feet with approximately 56,250 native plants following 2024 hurricane damage. Pinellas County released an RFP on February 26, 2026 (due July 29, 2025, a retroactive date suggesting the posting reflects an ongoing or extended solicitation) for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services across wetlands and stormwater sites, structured as an as-needed contract with SBE participation thresholds. DeKalb County, Georgia issued an ITB on June 9, 2026 (due July 13, 2026) for reconstruction of the DeKalb Tennis Center that includes IT and low-voltage infrastructure, a scope misaligned with the code's botanical focus. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation on January 28, 2026 (due February 3, 2026) for plant purchases under a standard commodity-supply model with one-year warranty. The code shows low coherence with actual procurement intent, and activity is sparse relative to the breadth of issuing bodies and geographies that solicit under broader landscaping and environmental services codes.
