UNSPSC 10224600: Live ixias

Live plants including the root ball of ixias

UNSPSC 10224600 Live ixias is a Class code that spans the procurement of live plants and botanical materials for landscape, restoration, and horticultural projects across state and local jurisdictions. The recent opportunities show that state and local governments are buying live plant materials—including native dune plants, ornamental landscaping specimens, trees, shrubs, groundcover, and environmental restoration plantings—either as standalone commodity purchases or as integrated components of larger construction, infrastructure, and environmental remediation contracts. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county governments (DeKalb County Georgia; Pasco County Florida; Collier County Florida; Pinellas County Florida), municipal governments (City of Dallas Texas), and special-purpose environmental and parks departments. The work ranges from simple transactional plant purchases to complex landscape installation and ecological restoration projects with monitoring and long-term maintenance obligations.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia. Pasco County Board of County Commissioners issued an IFB in March 2026 for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road, with a contract ceiling of $120,000 and a response deadline of April 14, 2026; the scope included furnishing sea oats, railroad vines, sea purslane, dune sunflower, trees, shrubs, palms, and groundcover to Florida Department of Agriculture Grade Number 1 standards across 15 medians. Collier County, Florida, solicited bids via Quick Quote in March 2026 for the Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings project, requiring supply and installation of approximately 56,250 native dune plants (sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, and dune sunflower) as 2-inch liners with a response deadline of March 13, 2026. Pinellas County released an RFP on February 26, 2026, for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services across wetlands and stormwater treatment ponds with a proposal deadline of July 29, 2025. The City of Dallas issued an Informal Solicitation on January 28, 2026, for a general plant purchase with a February 3, 2026, response deadline. DeKalb County Georgia's July 2026 ITB for the DeKalb Tennis Center reconstruction included IT infrastructure but was mis-tagged to this live-plants code and does not reflect actual horticultural procurement.
