UNSPSC 10224400: Live gomphrena globosa or globe amaranth

Live plants including the root ball of gomphrena globosa

UNSPSC 10224400 Live gomphrena globosa or globe amaranth is a Class code that bears little relevance to the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it. The code nominally covers a single ornamental plant species, but the solicitations posted under this classification span broad environmental restoration, landscaping infrastructure, dune stabilization, and general plant procurement — work that falls outside the narrow scope of globe amaranth supply. The tagged opportunities instead reflect multi-species native plant installation, coastal dune recovery, invasive species removal and maintenance, irrigation system design and installation, IT infrastructure reconstruction, and bulk plant purchase — none of which align with the code's stated commodity. This mismatch suggests the code classification may reflect data entry error or administrative miscoding rather than genuine procurement activity under UNSPSC 10224400.

The recent opportunities originate from Florida counties (Pasco, Collier, Pinellas), Georgia (DeKalb), and Texas (Dallas), with issuing bodies including county boards of commissioners, county environmental divisions, and municipal procurement offices. Representative work includes Pasco County's Ridge Road landscaping and irrigation installation (IFB, due April 14, 2026, contract not-to-exceed $120,000), Collier County's Pelican Bay dune planting and coastal restoration (Quick Quote informal procurement, due March 13, 2026), Pinellas County's five-year environmental planting and maintenance services (RFP, due July 29, 2025), and the City of Dallas plant purchase (Informal Solicitation, due February 3, 2026). The code shows no meaningful recent activity aligned with globe amaranth procurement and warrants careful verification before pursuing opportunities flagged under this classification.
