UNSPSC 10218003: Live auriculata rudbeckia

Live plant including the root ball of the auriculata variety of rudbeckia

UNSPSC 10218003 Live auriculata rudbeckia, a Commodity code, describes the supply and installation of native dune and landscape plants — specifically live auriculata rudbeckia and related native species — that state and local governments procure for coastal restoration, dune stabilization, median and right-of-way landscaping, and environmental remediation projects. Recent solicitations show a mix of supply-only procurements (plant inventory for municipal landscaping) and integrated supply-and-installation contracts for ecosystem restoration and site reclamation. Issuing bodies include county boards of county commissioners (Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County), municipal governments (City of Dallas), and county departments (DeKalb County Department of Innovation and Technology). The work spans landscape installation with irrigation systems, native plant establishment in dune and wetland settings, invasive species removal paired with native reestablishment, and long-term site monitoring and maintenance under five-year or multi-year service contracts.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (Pasco County, Collier County, and Pinellas County), with additional recent procurement in Georgia (DeKalb County) and Texas (City of Dallas). Representative recent opportunities include Pasco County's IFB for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (C.R. 524) for 2.95 miles with a contract ceiling of $120,000 and a response date of April 14, 2026; Collier County's Quick Quote informal procurement for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings coastal restoration project, due March 13, 2026, requiring supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants including sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower across 225,000 square feet of dune; and Pinellas County's RFP for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services, a five-year contract spanning 2025–2030 encompassing invasive species removal, native plant installation, and ongoing monitoring at mitigation sites and wetlands with proposals due July 29, 2025. The City of Dallas issued an informal solicitation for plant purchase (IFS 215260) with a response date of February 3, 2026, requiring new, unopened plants delivered to a municipal address.
