UNSPSC 10217907: Live argentinum hippeastrum

Live plant including the root ball of the argentinum variety of hippeastrum

UNSPSC 10217907 Live argentinum hippeastrum is a Commodity code that captures state and local government purchase of live plants—specifically amaryllis bulbs and potted specimens—for landscaping, dune restoration, environmental mitigation, and general municipal grounds maintenance. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying plants both as standalone commodity purchases and as part of larger ecological restoration or infrastructure projects. The scope ranges from simple supply contracts (such as the City of Dallas's bid for potted plants with one-year warranty and FOB delivery) to complex installation work bundled with site preparation, irrigation design, and long-term maintenance obligations. Issuing bodies include counties (DeKalb County, Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County, Georgia and Florida), a major city (Dallas), and special-purpose or subsidiary divisions (Collier County's Pelican Bay Services Division). Florida coastal and Gulf-facing jurisdictions dominate recent activity, driven by post-hurricane dune restoration and native-species mitigation requirements.

Geographic spread is concentrated in Florida and Georgia, with the most recent activity in Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County, and DeKalb County. Representative recent opportunities include Collier County's Quick Quote for supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants (sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, dune sunflower) across 225,000 square feet of coastal dune area in the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project, with bid due March 13, 2026; Pasco County's Invitation for Bid for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (C.R. 524) involving trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover, contract price not to exceed $120,000, bid due April 14, 2026; Pinellas County's Request for Proposal for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services across multiple mitigation and wetland sites, proposals due July 29, 2025; and the City of Dallas's Informal Solicitation for potted plants with firm pricing and FOB delivery to California Crossing Road, bid due February 3, 2026. All recent solicitations emphasize Florida-licensed or compliant nursery sourcing, E-Verify enrollment, and detailed compliance documentation including insurance and environmental permits where applicable.
