UNSPSC 10218315: Live leucospermum patersonii

Live plant including the root ball of the patersonii variety of leucospermums

UNSPSC 10218315 Live leucospermum patersonii is a Commodity code encompassing procurement of live leucospermum patersonii plants for landscaping, dune restoration, environmental mitigation, and public facility grounds work. State and local governments acquire these plants primarily through informal solicitations and invitations for bid (IFB) for coastal dune stabilization, roadway median and right-of-way landscaping, environmental mitigation site planting, and general municipal landscaping projects. The work spans supply-only arrangements as well as supply-and-installation contracts where contractors furnish plants from Florida-licensed nurseries, install them at specified centers and densities, and often provide initial watering, hydrogel supplementation, and warranty-period maintenance. Issuing bodies include county governments (Collier County, Pasco County, Pinellas County, DeKalb County) and municipal governments (City of Dallas), with Florida counties dominating recent activity. Several jurisdictions issue multi-year environmental or landscaping service contracts under which plant procurement and installation occur on an as-needed basis.

Recent solicitation activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia. Collier County issued a Quick Quote for supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants including leucospermum species as part of the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings coastal restoration project (due March 13, 2026). Pasco County issued IFB KM-26-047 for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road, including tree, shrub, and groundcover plantings with a $120,000 contract ceiling (due April 14, 2026). Pinellas County released RFP 250628RFP for a five-year Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services contract covering invasive plant removal, native plant installation, and site maintenance across wetlands and stormwater facilities (due July 29, 2025). The City of Dallas solicited bids for purchase of plants via Informal Solicitation 215260 (due February 3, 2026). DeKalb County's ITB for reconstruction of the DeKalb Tennis Center, though primarily IT and low-voltage infrastructure focused, was mistagged to this plant code and does not represent relevant activity. Geographic concentration in Florida reflects state and local coastal management, wetland mitigation, and stormwater treatment priorities, while periodic municipal procurement for general landscaping materials occurs in Texas and Georgia.
