UNSPSC 10222703: Live rattlesnake calathea

Live plant including the root ball of rattlesnake variety of calatheas

UNSPSC 10222703 Live rattlesnake calathea is a Commodity code with minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single ornamental plant species, but the recent opportunities solicited under this tag do not align with that scope — they span IT infrastructure installation, landscape and irrigation systems design, coastal dune restoration with native plantings, environmental remediation services, and general plant procurement. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in source systems or use of the code as a catch-all for plant-related work. State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include county governments (DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; Pinellas County, Florida) and a major city (City of Dallas, Texas). Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, with secondary presence in Georgia and Texas.

Representative recent opportunities show the scope mismatch plainly. DeKalb County's ITB 2026-076 (posted June 9, 2026, due July 13, 2026) solicited IT and low-voltage infrastructure for the DeKalb Tennis Center — not landscaping or plants. Pasco County's IFB KM-26-047 (posted March 13, 2026, due April 14, 2026) requested landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road with a $120,000 contract ceiling. Collier County issued a Quick Quote procurement for Pelican Bay dune plantings (posted and due March 13, 2026) covering 56,250 native plants, posts, rope, and signage for coastal dune stabilization. Pinellas County's RFP 250628 (posted February 26, 2026, due July 29, 2025) targeted five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services with SBE participation provisions. The City of Dallas' IFS 215260 (posted January 28, 2026, due February 3, 2026) requested generic plant purchases with no category specified. Bidders should treat this code as unreliable for targeting — verify actual scope in the RFP or IFB text before pursuing.
