UNSPSC 10214823: Live pink dyed hydrangea

Live plant including the root ball of the pink dyed variety of hydrangeas

UNSPSC 10214823 Live pink dyed hydrangea, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's name suggests procurement of a specific cut-flower or ornamental product, yet the recent opportunities tagged under this code span landscaping and irrigation installation, coastal dune restoration using native plants, environmental site remediation and monitoring, and general plant procurement — none of which are specific to live pink dyed hydrangea or cut-flower sourcing. The single opportunity explicitly labeled a plant purchase (City of Dallas IFS 215260, posted January 28, 2026, with response due February 3, 2026) specifies new, unopened plants in original packaging with no substitutes accepted, but does not detail species or color specifications. The code exhibits little relevant recent activity and appears to be a poor match for the opportunities listed.

The recent opportunities instead reflect state and local demand for broad-scope landscaping, environmental restoration, and horticultural services. DeKalb County, Georgia issued ITB 2026-076-ITB (due July 13, 2026) for reconstruction of the DeKalb Tennis Center, though the summary emphasizes IT and low-voltage infrastructure rather than landscape work. Pasco County, Florida issued IFB KM26047 (due April 14, 2026, capped at $120,000) for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road for 2.95 miles, requiring Florida-licensed contractors and Grade Number 1 plant standards. Collier County, Florida solicited via Quick Quote for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project (due March 13, 2026), calling for supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants across 225,000 square feet following 2024 hurricane damage. Pinellas County issued RFP 250628RFP (due July 29, 2025) for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services including invasive plant removal and native installation, with SBE participation thresholds at $100,000. Activity concentrates in Florida, with secondary representation from Texas and Georgia; all opportunities emphasize native species, environmental compliance, and long-term site management rather than ornamental cut flowers or dyed specialty products.
