UNSPSC 10223700: Live eryngiums

Live plants including the root ball of eryngiums

UNSPSC 10223700 Live eryngiums is a Class code that covers the supply and installation of live flowering plants, particularly eryngiums and other native or ornamental species, for coastal restoration, landscaping, and environmental remediation projects. State and local governments use this code to procure live plant materials for dune stabilization, median and right-of-way landscaping, wetland and stormwater mitigation, and ecological restoration initiatives. The issuing bodies span county governments, municipalities, and regional environmental divisions—Collier County, Pasco County, Pinellas County, and the City of Dallas have all posted recent opportunities. Work solicited under the code includes supply of plant liners and mature specimens, installation at specified spacing and density, initial watering and soil amendments such as hydrogel, site preparation, and post-installation maintenance through warranty periods of one year or longer. Contractors typically must hold relevant environmental certifications (such as Florida Licensed Public Applicator or Aquatic Category 5A applicator credentials), provide proof of nursery licensing and E-Verify enrollment, demonstrate dune or wetland restoration experience, and comply with coastal environmental constraints including sea turtle nesting protocols and stormwater pollution prevention standards.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Texas. Collier County issued a Quick Quote for Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings (56,250 native dune plants including sea oats, railroad vine, and sea purslane across 225,000 square feet, bid due March 13, 2026); Pasco County issued an IFB for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road including trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover (contract ceiling $120,000, bid due April 14, 2026); Pinellas County posted an RFP for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services with a plant list of 150 native species (proposal due July 29, 2025); and the City of Dallas solicited plants via informal procurement (bid due February 3, 2026). These opportunities reflect both one-time site restoration and multi-year framework contracts for ongoing maintenance and monitoring.
