UNSPSC 10216600: Live scotch brooms

Live plants including the root ball of scotch broom blooms

UNSPSC 10216600 Live scotch brooms is a Class code that nominally denotes live scotch broom plants, but the recent state and local opportunities show little activity directly aligned with this narrow commodity. The five recent solicitations posted between January and June 2026 span a broader landscape and environmental restoration scope — including IT and low-voltage infrastructure for a tennis center reconstruction, landscape and irrigation installation along a county road, coastal dune native plant installation and stabilization, multi-year environmental planting and invasive species removal services, and a general purchase of plants for municipal use. Of these, only the Pasco County Ridge Road landscaping, Collier County dune planting, Pinellas County environmental services, and Dallas plant purchase have direct relevance to live plant procurement; the DeKalb County tennis center is primarily IT infrastructure. The issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (Pasco, Collier, Pinellas), a city procurement office (Dallas), and a county department of innovation and technology (DeKalb), reflecting mixed activity across municipal and county tiers.

The geographic spread centers on Florida, where three of the four plant-relevant solicitations originated (Pasco County in March, Collier County in March, and Pinellas County in February 2026), with a single municipal opportunity in Dallas in January. The Pasco County IFB for landscape and irrigation installation along Ridge Road called for furnishing and installing trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover species meeting Florida Department of Agriculture Grade Number 1 standards, with a total contract value not to exceed $120,000 and bids due April 14, 2026. Collier County's Quick Quote for Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings, due March 13, 2026, specified supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants including sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower across 4,500 linear feet of coastal dune. Pinellas County issued an RFP for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services covering invasive species removal and native plant installation at multiple sites, with proposals due July 29, 2025 and SBE participation provisions. The Dallas informal solicitation for plants, due February 3, 2026, required new, unopened stock with FOB delivery to a municipal address and a one-year warranty. Live scotch brooms as a discrete commodity show minimal recent solicitation activity at the state and local level; procurement under this code appears dormant or misfiled.
