UNSPSC 10217351: Live purple tulip

Live plant including the root ball of the purple variety of tulips

UNSPSC 10217351 Live purple tulip is a Commodity code that covers the procurement of live purple tulips and related living plant materials for landscaping, environmental restoration, and grounds maintenance projects by state and local governments. Recent opportunities under this code show state and local buyers purchasing live plants for coastal dune stabilization, roadway landscaping and irrigation systems, environmental mitigation and wetland restoration, recreational facility grounds improvements, and municipal grounds beautification—often bundled with installation labor, site preparation, and maintenance services. The issuing bodies span county boards of commissioners (Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County, DeKalb County in Georgia) and municipal governments (City of Dallas), reflecting activity across both environmental and general facilities procurement. Counties appear to be the dominant issuer type in recent solicitations.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia. Pasco County issued an IFB on March 13, 2026, for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (C.R. 524) including trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover species with an April 14, 2026 response deadline and a $120,000 contract ceiling. Collier County solicited bids via Quick Quote on March 13, 2026, for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project, calling for approximately 56,250 native dune plants (sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower) as 2-inch liners with installation services, due the same day. Pinellas County released an RFP on February 26, 2026, for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services across mitigation sites and wetlands, with proposals due July 29, 2025 and an SBE participation threshold of $100,000. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation on January 28, 2026, for a purchase of plants with a February 3, 2026 deadline. The code sees limited but consistent recent activity; no standout repeat buyers appear in the opportunities block beyond these county and municipal issuers.
