UNSPSC 10217344: Live parrot pink tulip

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

UNSPSC 10217344 Live parrot pink tulip is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local government procurement activity. The code appears to describe a specific ornamental plant species, yet the recent solicitations posted under it encompass broader landscape restoration, environmental management, and infrastructure work that fall substantially outside the scope of purchasing live parrot pink tulips specifically. DeKalb County's June 2026 ITB for reconstruction of the DeKalb Tennis Center focuses on IT and low-voltage infrastructure installation rather than plant procurement. Pasco County's March 2026 IFB for landscaping and irrigation along Ridge Road involves general landscape installation with specified plant species—sea oats, shrubs, palms, and groundcover—but does not name parrot pink tulips. Collier County's March 2026 coastal dune planting procurement specifies sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower as the required plant materials. Pinellas County's RFP for environmental planting and monitoring services references a comprehensive list of 150 native plant species for wetland and ecological restoration work. The City of Dallas's January 2026 IFS for plant purchase uses generic language without specifying species.

The issuing bodies include county governments (DeKalb, Pasco, Collier, Pinellas) and a city procurement office (Dallas), suggesting typical municipal and county environmental management and landscaping operations. Activity concentrates in Florida (Pasco, Collier, Pinellas counties) and Georgia (DeKalb County), with a single solicitation from Texas. The code shows little recent activity directly tied to parrot pink tulip procurement and appears to have been tagged to opportunities focused on native plant restoration, general landscape installation, and environmental compliance rather than ornamental plant species. Firms pursuing work under this code should note the disconnect between the nominal commodity description and actual state and local buying patterns in recent solicitations.
