UNSPSC 10214507: Live white heather

Live plant including the root ball of the white variety of heathers

UNSPSC 10214507 Live white heather is a Commodity code with minimal direct alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities tagged to this code involve infrastructure installation (IT and low voltage cabling at a Georgia recreation center), roadside landscaping and irrigation across multiple miles in Florida, coastal dune restoration planting in Florida, environmental remediation and native plant installation across five years in Florida, and a straightforward municipal plant purchase in Texas. Only the dune restoration project and the environmental remediation contract genuinely involve planting native vegetation; the others encompass broader infrastructure, irrigation, or general plant procurement unrelated to heather species. The code's nominal scope—live white heather as an ornamental or restoration plant—does not match the work actually being solicited under it in recent months.

State and local issuing bodies pursuing plantings and environmental restoration work have been primarily Florida counties (Pasco, Collier, Pinellas) and municipalities (City of Dallas), reflecting coastal and subtropical restoration demand following 2024 hurricane damage and ongoing stormwater and wetland management. The Pinellas County RFP for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services (released June 30, 2025, proposals due July 29, 2025) and the Collier County Quick Quote for Pelican Bay dune plantings (due March 13, 2026) represent the closest activity to native planting work, but neither specifies white heather as a material. The Pasco County IFB for landscape and irrigation on Ridge Road (due April 14, 2026, contract not exceeding $120,000) included shrub and groundcover installation but no heather specification. The code shows little relevant recent activity and appears to be a taxonomy mismatch; vendors pursuing native plant restoration and ecological landscaping in state and local procurement should monitor Family-level or Class-level codes rather than this Commodity code.
