UNSPSC 10217421: Live purple pride waxflower

Live plant including the root ball of the purple pride variety of waxflowers

UNSPSC 10217421 Live purple pride waxflower is a Commodity code that nominally designates a single flowering plant species, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reflect a substantial mismatch between the code's scope and actual procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities involve IT and low voltage infrastructure installation, roadway landscaping and irrigation systems, coastal dune restoration with native plants, environmental wetland management services, and general plant purchasing—none of which specifically procure live purple pride waxflower or target that species as a primary deliverable. The issuing bodies span county governments (DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; Pinellas County, Florida) and municipal departments (City of Dallas, Texas). This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its commodity designation.

The geographic concentration of opportunities appears limited to the Southeast and South, with Florida counties (Pasco, Collier, Pinellas) representing three of the five recent postings, DeKalb County, Georgia representing one, and the City of Dallas, Texas representing one. The representative opportunities include Pasco County's IFB for landscape and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (response date April 14, 2026), Collier County's Quick Quote for coastal dune plantings featuring sea oats and native species (response date March 13, 2026), Pinellas County's RFP for environmental planting and wetland management services across a five-year term (response date July 29, 2025), and the City of Dallas's informal solicitation for plant purchasing (response date February 3, 2026). The code's tagging appears to be a cataloging error rather than intentional commodity alignment. Pursuit under this code is not recommended unless the source material confirms that live purple pride waxflower is explicitly required by a specific upcoming solicitation.
