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

UNSPSC 10217964 Live starkiorum hippeastrum, a Commodity code, covers the supply and installation of live ornamental plants and native vegetation for landscaping, dune restoration, environmental mitigation, and facility grounds projects. State and local governments procure these plants for parks, public facilities, coastal protection, wetland restoration, and roadside beautification. Work solicited under this code ranges from bulk supply of native dune plants (sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, dune sunflower) for coastal dune stabilization to comprehensive native plant installation and ongoing maintenance for environmental mitigation sites, stormwater ponds, and ecological restoration projects. Issuing bodies include county governments, municipal parks and public works departments, and specialized environmental divisions. Florida counties—DeKalb County (Georgia), Pasco County, Collier County, and Pinellas County—and the City of Dallas have posted recent solicitations. The mix of issuing bodies spans county commissions, municipal procurement offices, and departmental divisions focused on environmental services and parks management.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Texas. Pasco County posted an IFB due April 14, 2026 for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (2.95 miles) with a contract ceiling of $120,000, requiring licensed contractors and compliance with state registration and E-Verify requirements. Collier County issued a Quick Quote on March 13, 2026 for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project, encompassing supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants across 4,500 linear feet of coastal dune following 2024 hurricane damage, with contractors required to source materials from Florida-licensed nurseries and demonstrate coastal dune restoration experience. Pinellas County released an RFP on February 26, 2026 for a five-year Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services contract (2025–2030) covering invasive plant removal, native installation, and wetland monitoring at multiple sites, with SBE participation encouraged and a $100,000 work-assignment threshold for small businesses. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation on January 28, 2026 (due February 3, 2026) for plant purchases with a one-year warranty and FOB delivery, requiring new, unopened stock with no substitutes accepted. Procurement activity shows steady state and local demand for native species installation, ecological restoration services, and institutional grounds plants across Southeast and South-Central regions.
