UNSPSC 10214618: Live southern cross heliconia

Live plant including the root ball of the southern cross variety of heliconias

UNSPSC 10214618 Live southern cross heliconia is a Commodity code, yet the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it show no landscaping, horticultural, or plant-supply activity matching the code's nominal scope. The opportunities record a tennis center IT infrastructure reconstruction (DeKalb County, Georgia, ITB), road landscaping and irrigation installation (Pasco County, Florida, IFB), coastal dune native plantings (Collier County, Florida, Quick Quote), environmental wetlands restoration with native species (Pinellas County, Florida, RFP), and generic plant procurement (City of Dallas, Texas, Informal Solicitation). While several opportunities involve plant installation or supply—particularly the Pasco County irrigation and landscaping project (Ridge Road, 2.95 miles of median and right-of-way planting, $120,000 contract, due April 14, 2026), the Collier County dune restoration (56,250 native plants including sea oats, railroad vine, and dune sunflower, due March 13, 2026), and Pinellas County's five-year environmental planting and maintenance contract (150 native species across wetlands and stormwater ponds, due July 29, 2025)—none of these solicitations specifically request live southern cross heliconia. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its product specification.

Issuing bodies across recent opportunities span county governments (DeKalb, Pasco, Collier, and Pinellas Counties in Georgia and Florida) and a major city (Dallas, Texas). The geographic concentration is heavily Florida-based, with three of five recent opportunities from Florida county agencies focused on coastal restoration, roadway landscaping, and environmental management. The tennis center and Dallas plant procurement represent Georgia and Texas activity respectively. None of the posted opportunities explicitly specify heliconia as a required plant species, and the Commodity code's narrow product designation does not align with the broader landscaping, dune restoration, and native-plant management work currently being solicited under the code classification.
