UNSPSC 10217355: Live yellow tulip

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

UNSPSC 10217355 Live yellow tulip is a Commodity code that captures ornamental plant material procurement by state and local jurisdictions, though recent solicitation activity under this code shows substantial scope mismatch — the posted opportunities span landscape and irrigation installation, coastal dune restoration with native plantings, environmental site remediation with invasive species removal and native plant establishment, IT infrastructure reconstruction, and generic plant purchases, most of which involve services and mixed material-plus-labor scopes rather than live yellow tulips specifically. The issuing bodies include county governments (DeKalb County in Georgia; Pasco County and Collier County in Florida; Pinellas County in Florida) and city procurement offices (City of Dallas in Texas), reflecting a mix of county departments, special divisions such as coastal management and stormwater programs, and municipal general services.

Recent opportunities concentrate in Florida and Texas. Pasco County issued an IFB (due April 14, 2026) for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road, encompassing native trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover at a $120,000 contract value, with a one-year warranty on all planted materials. Collier County solicited bids via Quick Quote (due March 13, 2026) for supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants including sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower across 225,000 square feet of coastal dune in the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project. Pinellas County released an RFP (due July 29, 2025) for a five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance contract covering invasive and exotic plant removal and native plant installation at mitigation sites and wetlands, with a comprehensive 150-species native plant list and SBE set-asides not to exceed $100,000 per work assignment. The City of Dallas issued an Informal Solicitation (due February 3, 2026) for general plant purchases with FOB delivery to a single Dallas location, requiring new, unopened plants in original packaging. The code shows active procurement across multiple states but lacks clear focus on live yellow tulips as a distinct commodity line.
