UNSPSC 10217806: Live eriostemon geranium

Live plant including the root ball of the eriostemon variety of geranium

UNSPSC 10217806 Live eriostemon geranium is a Commodity code that encompasses supply and installation of ornamental live plants, particularly geraniums and related species, for landscape restoration, environmental mitigation, and municipal beautification projects. State and local governments procure under this code for coastal dune stabilization, park reconstruction, roadway median landscaping, and wetland or stormwater facility restoration where native or drought-tolerant ornamental plantings are specified. Recent solicitations show a mix of county governments and municipalities issuing ITBs, IFBs, and RFPs for comprehensive landscaping and planting services that bundle material supply with installation labor, site preparation, and warranty obligations. Issuing bodies include Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County, DeKalb County, and the City of Dallas, typically procuring through informal solicitations or invitation-for-bid processes with response periods of one to two weeks.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida, particularly along the Gulf Coast, where coastal dune restoration and stormwater pond vegetation management drive consistent demand. Pasco County issued an IFB in March 2026 for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (2.95 miles of median and right-of-way plantings) with a contract cap of $120,000 and bids due April 14, 2026; Collier County solicited dune planting supply and installation via Quick Quote informal procurement in March 2026 for approximately 56,250 native dune plants across 225,000 square feet of coastal dune following hurricane damage, with bids due March 13, 2026; Pinellas County released an RFP in February 2026 for a five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance contract (2025–2030) covering invasive species removal, native plant installation, and regulatory compliance monitoring at multiple mitigation and wetland sites; and DeKalb County in Georgia issued an ITB in June 2026 for IT and low-voltage infrastructure at the DeKalb Tennis Center with bids due July 13, 2026, though this opportunity appears mistagged to the code and involves primarily electrical systems rather than plant material. The City of Dallas solicited plant purchases via informal solicitation in January 2026 with a due date of February 3, 2026, specifying new, unopened items for delivery to a single address. Set-asides and local vendor preferences appear in some solicitations (Pasco County offered local preference; Pinellas County included SBE participation thresholds), though coastal environmental compliance and state licensure requirements dominate qualification criteria across these opportunities.
