UNSPSC 10217005: Live sunsplash sunflower

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

UNSPSC 10217005 Live sunsplash sunflower, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — live flowering plants of a specific cultivar — does not match the recent opportunities tagged under it. State and local governments are acquiring broad landscaping and environmental restoration services encompassing native plant installation, dune stabilization, invasive species removal, and site maintenance across multiple jurisdictions, but the opportunities themselves span landscape installation (Pasco County), coastal dune restoration (Collier County), environmental mitigation services (Pinellas County), and municipal plant procurement (City of Dallas). The DeKalb County ITB for tennis center reconstruction, also tagged to this code, concerns IT and low-voltage infrastructure systems and is unrelated to plant procurement. Issuing bodies range from county boards of commissioners to city departments and special districts, with no single repeat buyer evident in the recent records.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (Pasco, Collier, and Pinellas counties, representing consecutive coastal and inland jurisdictions) and Texas (Dallas), with no clear pattern indicating this code's intended commodity is actually being solicited. Representative recent opportunities include Pasco County's IFB for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road, due April 14, 2026, with a contract cap of $120,000; Collier County's Quick Quote for Pelican Bay Bay Colony dune plantings (native sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower) due March 13, 2026; Pinellas County's five-year RFP for environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services, due July 29, 2025; and the City of Dallas's IFS for plant purchase, due February 3, 2026. The code appears to lack substantive activity targeting the live sunsplash sunflower cultivar specifically; the opportunities reflect generic plant and landscaping procurement that may be misclassified or represent legacy tagging errors in the underlying procurement database.
