UNSPSC 10217972: Live yungacense hippeastrum

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

UNSPSC 10217972 Live yungacense hippeastrum is a Commodity code that captures live ornamental flowering plants, but recent state and local solicitations show no purchasing activity under this specific botanical designation. The code appears misaligned with actual state and local procurement patterns; the recent opportunities posted under or near this code span IT infrastructure installation, landscape and irrigation systems, coastal dune restoration with native plantings, environmental site management and native plant installation, and general plant procurement — none of which target yungacense hippeastrum or similar specialty bulb varieties as a primary commodity.

The geographic concentration of recent activity centers on Florida counties — DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; and Pinellas County, Florida — with one solicitation from the City of Dallas, Texas. The representative opportunities include Pasco County's landscaping and irrigation installation IFB (due April 14, 2026) for $120,000, Collier County's coastal dune planting quick quote (due March 13, 2026), Pinellas County's five-year environmental planting and maintenance RFP (due July 29, 2025), and the City of Dallas's informal solicitation for general plant purchase (due February 3, 2026). These solicitations emphasize native plantings for environmental restoration, dune stabilization, stormwater management, and landscape beautification rather than specialty ornamental bulbs. Buyers across this activity set require vendor compliance with E-Verify, insurance, and in some cases state professional licensing or certification. Unless your firm supplies live yungacense hippeastrum or specialty hippeastrum varieties to state or local landscape contractors, grounds maintenance programs, or botanical gardens, this code does not map to current procurement demand.
