UNSPSC 10217423: Live wanaroo waxflower

Live plant including the root ball of the wanaroo variety of waxflowers

UNSPSC 10217423 Live wanaroo waxflower is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this classification. Recent opportunities posted under this code involve landscaping and irrigation installation, coastal dune restoration, environmental planting and maintenance services, and general plant procurement—none of which align with the nominal commodity name. The issuing bodies include county governments (DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; Pinellas County, Florida) and city procurement offices (City of Dallas, Texas), spanning a mix of capital infrastructure, environmental restoration, and operational supply purchasing. The scope of work covers comprehensive landscape design and installation (including irrigation systems with specified pressure and flow rates), native coastal dune plantings with post-and-rope erosion controls, five-year environmental management contracts for invasive species removal and native plant restoration at stormwater and wetland sites, and routine plant stock purchases for city facilities.

Florida jurisdictions dominate recent activity under this code. Representative opportunities include Pasco County's IFB for Ridge Road landscaping and irrigation (2.95 miles, due April 14, 2026, not-to-exceed $120,000), Collier County's informal Quick Quote for Pelican Bay coastal dune plantings with approximately 56,250 native plants and erosion-control infrastructure (due March 13, 2026), and Pinellas County's RFP for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services (due July 29, 2025, with State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and Aquatic Category 5A certifications required). DeKalb County, Georgia issued an ITB for IT and low-voltage infrastructure at the DeKalb Tennis Center (due July 13, 2026)—which appears unrelated to horticultural procurement. The City of Dallas posted an informal solicitation for plant purchases with a February 3, 2026 deadline, requiring new unopened stock delivered FOB to a specified Dallas address. The code shows material recent activity in Florida coastal and environmental contexts but exhibits misalignment between the nominal commodity and active solicitations.
