UNSPSC 10216501: Live annual scabiosa

Live plant including the root ball of the annual variety of scabiosas

UNSPSC 10216501 Live annual scabiosa is a Commodity code that nominally covers ornamental flowering plants, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it span a much broader landscape—encompassing site-wide native plant installation, coastal dune restoration, environmental mitigation, and general grounds planting for public facilities. State and local governments are using this code to solicit work ranging from dune stabilization with sea oats and native groundcovers to maintenance of stormwater treatment ponds and park reconstruction. The issuing bodies include county governments (DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; and Pinellas County, Florida) and city procurement offices (City of Dallas, Texas). These jurisdictions are sourcing both standalone plant materials and integrated landscape-installation services bundled with design, permitting, irrigation, maintenance, and environmental monitoring.

The code shows concentrated recent activity in Florida (Pasco County, Collier County, and Pinellas County all posted solicitations in March 2026) and scattered activity in Georgia and Texas. Pasco County's Invitation for Bid (IFB) KM-26-047, posted March 13, 2026, sought landscaping and irrigation installation along 2.95 miles of Ridge Road with a contract ceiling of $120,000 and bids due April 14, 2026. Collier County's Quick Quote for Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings, posted and due March 13, 2026, requested supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants (sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, dune sunflower) across 225,000 square feet of coastal dune following hurricane damage. Pinellas County's RFP 250628RFP, released February 26, 2026, covered a five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance contract (2025–2030) for invasive-plant removal and native installation at mitigation sites and wetlands, with SBE provisions and labor-rate-based pricing. The City of Dallas posted Informal Solicitation 215260 on January 28, 2026, for plant purchases with delivery to a specific address and bids due February 3, 2026.
