UNSPSC 10217004: Live sunbright sunflower

Live plant including the root ball of the sunbright variety of sunflowers

UNSPSC 10217004 Live sunbright sunflower (Commodity) encompasses native dune and coastal restoration planting, landscape and irrigation installation, and plant material supply for state and local environmental management projects. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying live plant material—primarily native species including sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower—supplied as 2-inch liners or field-ready stock for coastal dune stabilization, wetland and stormwater restoration, and public landscaping initiatives. Issuing bodies include county governments (DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; Pinellas County, Florida) and city governments (City of Dallas, Texas), with county environmental and public works divisions driving most recent activity. Pinellas County issued a five-year RFP for environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services (2025–2030) covering wetlands and stormwater sites, indicating repeat demand for multi-year ecosystem management contracts alongside one-time installation projects.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (Pasco, Collier, and Pinellas Counties) and Georgia (DeKalb County), with a recent plant-supply solicitation from the City of Dallas, Texas. Representative opportunities include Pasco County's IFB for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (due April 14, 2026) for $120,000 maximum, encompassing 2.95 miles of median and right-of-way planting with irrigation system design and installation; Collier County's Quick Quote procurement for Pelican Bay Bay Colony dune plantings (due March 13, 2026) supplying approximately 56,250 native dune plants across 225,000 square feet of coastal dune following 2024 hurricane damage; and Pinellas County's RFP for environmental planting and maintenance services on an as-needed basis over five years (proposals due July 29, 2025). The City of Dallas issued an IFB for plant purchases (due February 3, 2026) with FOB delivery and one-year warranty terms. Coastal counties dominate recent solicitation volume, and local-vendor preference and SBE set-asides appear in select procurements.
