UNSPSC 10216400: Live ranunculuses

Live plants including the root ball of ranunculuses

UNSPSC 10216400 Live ranunculuses is a Class code that encompasses supply and installation of live ornamental plants—primarily native dune vegetation, coastal restoration plantings, and general landscape plants—for municipal parks, environmental mitigation sites, stormwater infrastructure, and dune stabilization projects. State and local governments buy under this code through county governments and municipal procurement offices, with Florida jurisdictions dominating recent activity. Pasco County, Collier County, and Pinellas County have issued multiple solicitations for landscape and dune restoration work, while the City of Dallas and DeKalb County (Georgia) represent non-Florida municipal and county buyers. The work ranges from large-scale coastal dune plantings using native species (sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, dune sunflower) installed at specified spacing and density, to general landscape and irrigation installation along roadways, to native plant installation and invasive species removal on wetland and stormwater mitigation sites over multi-year maintenance contracts. Contractors typically must source plants from licensed nurseries, provide installation labor with site-specific field adjustments, deliver initial watering and supplementation (hydrogel), and comply with coastal environmental constraints such as sea turtle nesting protocols.

Florida counties account for the majority of recent posting activity. 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 at a not-to-exceed contract price of $120,000, requiring bidders to obtain a Water Use Permit, design a Hunter-brand irrigation system, and install trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover to Florida Department of Agriculture Grade Number 1 standards. Collier County posted a Quick Quote solicitation on March 13, 2026 (due the same day) for supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants across 4,500 linear feet of coastal dune in the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project, requiring line-item pricing with firm quotes through September 30, 2026. Pinellas County released an RFP on February 26, 2026 for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services (2025–2030) covering invasive species removal, native plant installation, and monitoring across mitigation sites and wetlands, with SBE participation thresholds. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation (IFS) on January 28, 2026 (due February 3, 2026) for a general plant purchase requiring new, unopened inventory FOB delivery to a Dallas facility with one-year warranty. All solicitations prioritize responsive and responsible bidding; Florida procurements frequently mandate E-Verify registration, insurance naming the issuing jurisdiction, and compliance with state environmental permitting.
