UNSPSC 10218340: Live leucospermum pendunculatum

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

UNSPSC 10218340 Live leucospermum pendunculatum is a Commodity code for a specific ornamental plant species; however, the recent state and local solicitations posted under this code do not show procurement of leucospermum pendunculatum itself. Instead, the code appears to be applied to broader landscape and environmental planting work that encompasses multiple native and ornamental plant species, including sea oats, dune sunflower, railroad vine, and general tree and shrub installation for coastal dune restoration, road median landscaping, and site remediation projects. State and local buyers using this code include county governments and municipalities—Pasco County and Collier County in Florida have solicited landscape and irrigation installation with mixed native plantings; Pinellas County seeks multi-year environmental planting and native plant installation services across wetlands and stormwater sites; and the City of Dallas has posted for general plant procurement. The work itself spans supply-and-install contracts for dune and habitat restoration, roadway and park landscaping with integrated irrigation systems, and native plant material for ecological mitigation.

Recent opportunities cluster in Florida and Texas. Pasco County issued IFB KM26047 in March 2026 for landscape and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (2.95 miles, due April 14, 2026, contract not-to-exceed $120,000); Collier County posted a Quick Quote in March 2026 for supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants across 225,000 square feet of coastal dune for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project (due March 13, 2026); Pinellas County released an RFP in February 2026 for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services across multiple wetland and stormwater sites, including a 150-species native plant list (proposals due July 29, 2025—a date that appears anomalous in the source); and the City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation (IFS) 215260 on January 28, 2026 for plant purchase with a February 3, 2026 deadline. DeKalb County's ITB 2026-076 (posted June 9, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for reconstruction of the DeKalb Tennis Center was mislabeled under this plant code and addresses IT and low-voltage infrastructure, not plant procurement. The code shows sporadic but geographically dispersed activity; qualifying contractors often must hold Florida applicator licenses, comply with E-Verify, provide proof of nursery sources and species documentation, and meet insurance and bonding requirements specific to site conditions.
