UNSPSC 10218100: Live proteas

Live plants including the root ball of proteas

UNSPSC 10218100 Live proteas is a Class code covering the supply and installation of live plant material for landscaping, site restoration, and environmental management projects. State and local governments procure under this code for a range of work: coastal dune stabilization using native dune plants (sea oats, railroad vine, dune sunflower), median and right-of-way landscaping with trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover, environmental site restoration including invasive plant removal and native species installation, and general plant purchases for municipal and county facilities. The issuing bodies include county governments (DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; Pinellas County, Florida) and city governments (City of Dallas, Texas). Counties in Florida dominate recent activity, with solicitations ranging from single-project Quick Quotes and Informal Solicitations to multi-year RFP contracts for ongoing environmental management.

Recent opportunities span Florida and Texas. Pasco County issued IFB KM-26-047 on March 13, 2026, due April 14, 2026, for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road, with a contract cap of $120,000 and specifications for native plant materials meeting Florida Department of Agriculture Grade Number 1 standards. Collier County solicited bids via Quick Quote on March 13, 2026, for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project, encompassing approximately 56,250 native dune plants and coastal dune stabilization work. 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 plant installation, and environmental monitoring at multiple wetland and stormwater sites, with SBE participation provisions and a $100,000 work-assignment threshold. The City of Dallas issued Informal Solicitation 215260 on January 28, 2026, due February 3, 2026, for the purchase of plants with FOB delivery and a one-year warranty requirement. DeKalb County's ITB 2026-076-ITB (posted June 9, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for DeKalb Tennis Center reconstruction includes IT and low-voltage infrastructure, though this opportunity does not align with the code's plant-supply scope.
