UNSPSC 10216102: Live orange dubium ornithogalum

Live plant including the root ball of the orange dubium ornithogalums

UNSPSC 10216102 Live orange dubium ornithogalum, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment between its nominal taxonomy name and the work actually being solicited under it in state and local procurement. Recent opportunities tagged to this code span landscaping and irrigation installation, coastal dune restoration, environmental planting and invasive-species management, IT and low-voltage infrastructure systems, and general plant procurement—none of which match the ornithogalum species designation. The issuing bodies reflect typical county and municipal procurement patterns: Pasco County Board of County Commissioners, Collier County, Pinellas County, DeKalb County, and the City of Dallas. Work scopes range from large-scale infrastructure projects (Ridge Road landscaping and irrigation spanning 2.95 miles with a $120,000 contract ceiling and 180-day performance schedule) to specialized coastal restoration (Pelican Bay dune planting with 56,250 native plants across 225,000 square feet) and five-year environmental services contracts (Pinellas County environmental planting and monitoring from 2025–2030 with SBE provisions and potential two 12-month extensions).

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Texas. Pasco County issued an IFB for Ridge Road landscaping and irrigation due April 14, 2026, requiring Florida licensure, E-Verify enrollment, performance and payment bonds at 100 percent of contract award, and compliance with NPDES and stormwater pollution prevention requirements. Collier County solicited dune planting via Quick Quote with bids due March 13, 2026, requiring coastal dune restoration experience, Florida-licensed plant nursery sourcing, and Workers' Compensation and commercial general liability insurance at $1,000,000 per occurrence. Pinellas County released an RFP on June 30, 2025, for environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services through 2030, requiring State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and Aquatic Category 5A applicator certifications. DeKalb County issued an ITB for IT and low-voltage infrastructure at the DeKalb Tennis Center due July 13, 2026—plainly unrelated to plant procurement. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation for plants due February 3, 2026, requiring FOB delivery to a specified Dallas address and one-year warranty coverage. The code exhibits poor categorical coherence; procurement professionals should confirm code assignment with the issuing body before pursuing, as the mismatch suggests either data entry error or fundamental misalignment in the taxonomy assignment.
