UNSPSC 10224100: Live gentianas

Live plants including the root ball of gentianas

UNSPSC 10224100 Live gentianas is a Class code that appears in state and local procurement activity focused on landscape installation and native plant restoration, though the recent opportunities do not reflect the code's nominal gentiana-species focus. Instead, recent solicitations under this code span coastal dune stabilization planting (sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower), general landscaping and irrigation systems along roadway corridors, five-year environmental restoration and invasive-plant-removal contracts with native plant installation, and commodity purchases of unspecified plant materials for city departments. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County, DeKalb County), municipalities (City of Dallas), and multi-year environmental service contracts tied to wetlands and stormwater management. The code draws solicitations from Florida counties and Georgia and Texas municipalities, reflecting regional coastal-restoration and landscape-maintenance activity.

Recent opportunities include Pasco County's IFB for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (C.R. 524) from Broad Street to Moon Lake Road—2.95 miles of median and right-of-way planting with a $120,000 contract ceiling, bids due April 14, 2026; Collier County's Quick Quote solicitation for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project, a 225,000-square-foot coastal dune stabilization initiative with approximately 56,250 native dune plants and restoration infrastructure, bids due March 13, 2026; Pinellas County's RFP for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services covering invasive and exotic plant removal, native plant installation, and regulatory-compliant monitoring across a five-year contract period (2025–2030), proposals due July 29, 2025; and City of Dallas's Informal Solicitation for Purchase of Plants, due February 3, 2026, with all items FOB delivery to 1775 California Crossing Rd., Suite 100, Dallas, TX 75220. The code shows active procurement across Florida counties and select Texas and Georgia jurisdictions, though the mismatch between the code's gentiana specification and the scope of actual recent opportunities suggests the category is a misclassification or catch-all for general plant-material procurement in state and local landscape and environmental-restoration work.
