UNSPSC 10217961: Live rubropictum hippeastrum

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

UNSPSC 10217961 Live rubropictum hippeastrum is a Commodity code that does not reflect work actually being solicited by state and local governments in the recent opportunities block. The code nominally refers to a specific ornamental plant species, yet the recent solicitations tagged under this code encompass IT and low-voltage infrastructure installation, landscape and irrigation system design and installation along roadways, coastal dune restoration with native plantings, environmental planting and invasive species management, and general plant procurement—none of which map to the code's stated commodity. The mismatch suggests either a data-quality issue in how opportunities are tagged or a fundamental misalignment between the code's scope and procurement practice in the jurisdictions represented.

The recent opportunities do show landscaping, environmental restoration, and plant-procurement work across Florida and Texas counties and municipalities. DeKalb County, Georgia issued an ITB for IT infrastructure at a tennis center reconstruction (due July 13, 2026); Pasco County, Florida solicited landscape and irrigation installation along Ridge Road via IFB KM-26-047 (closed April 14, 2026) with a contract ceiling of $120,000; Collier County, Florida's Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings quick quote procurement (due March 13, 2026) covered coastal dune stabilization with native plant installation following 2024 hurricane damage; Pinellas County, Florida issued an RFP for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and invasive species management services (proposals due July 29, 2025); and the City of Dallas solicited general plant purchases via Informal Solicitation 215260 (due February 3, 2026). Because the code shows no coherent thematic connection to actual procurement activity, business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for practical pursuit purposes and confirm the correct UNSPSC family before investing in opportunity tracking or qualification strategy.
