UNSPSC 10217342: Live parrot orange tulip

Live plant including the root ball of the parrot orange variety of tulips

UNSPSC 10217342 Live parrot orange tulip is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity recently tagged under it. The recent opportunities on record show no purchases of live parrot orange tulips or related horticultural stock. Instead, the code captures a diverse mix of landscaping, environmental restoration, and general plant procurement: DeKalb County (Georgia) issued an ITB for IT and low-voltage infrastructure installation at a tennis center reconstruction; Pasco County (Florida) solicited bids for landscaping and irrigation system installation along a 2.95-mile roadway corridor; Collier County (Florida) sought supply and installation of native coastal dune plants following hurricane damage; Pinellas County (Florida) posted an RFP for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services at wetlands and stormwater sites; and the City of Dallas (Texas) requested bids for general plant purchases. The code's labeling appears to be a data quality issue rather than a meaningful indicator of procurement intent under this taxonomy.

The geographic spread spans Florida (Pasco, Collier, and Pinellas Counties) and extends to Georgia (DeKalb County) and Texas (Dallas). Recent notice types include ITB, IFB, RFP, and informal solicitations, with response dates ranging from February through July 2026. Because the code itself does not correlate with what state and local governments are actually buying, characterizing this as an active procurement category would be misleading. The opportunities present appear to have been mis-coded rather than legitimately classified. A business development professional should treat this code as dormant and verify any RFQ, RFP, or IFB notice directly against the statement of work before assuming relevance.
