UNSPSC 10216503: Live caucasica blue scabiosa

Live plant including the root ball of the caucasica blue variety of scabiosas

UNSPSC 10216503 Live caucasica blue scabiosa is a Commodity code that encompasses ornamental plant supply and installation for landscaping, dune restoration, and environmental management projects. State and local governments solicit under this code primarily for coastal dune stabilization, roadway and park landscaping, and native plant restoration at environmental mitigation sites. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County), county recreation departments (DeKalb County), and municipal governments (City of Dallas). The work ranges from small equipment-focused plantings to large-scale coastal restoration and multi-year environmental management contracts. Pasco County and Collier County have posted recent activity focused on native dune species and coastal restoration following tropical weather damage, while Pinellas County seeks ongoing environmental planting and invasive-species removal over a five-year term.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida, with Pasco County posting an IFB for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (C.R. 524) due April 14, 2026, for $120,000.00; Collier County issuing a Quick Quote for supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants (sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, dune sunflower) at Pelican Bay Bay Colony due March 13, 2026; and Pinellas County releasing an RFP for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services with a due date of July 29, 2025. Texas activity appears limited, with the City of Dallas posting an informal solicitation for generic plant purchases due February 3, 2026. Georgia procurement is represented by DeKalb County's reconstruction project at the DeKalb Tennis Center (ITB 2026-076-ITB, due July 13, 2026), though that solicitation centers on IT and low-voltage infrastructure rather than landscaping, suggesting a code-tagging mismatch. The code shows active seasonal demand tied to coastal restoration and maintenance cycles in Florida jurisdictions, with spring-to-summer posting peaks and strict compliance requirements for E-Verify, professional licensing, insurance, and environmental permitting.
