UNSPSC 10231636: Live sheba pompon chrysanthemum

Live plant including the root ball of the sheba variety of pompon chrysanthemum flowers

UNSPSC 10231636 Live sheba pompon chrysanthemum is a Commodity code that covers ornamental flowering plants for landscaping and beautification projects. Recent state and local procurement activity under this code, however, shows substantial mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what is actually being solicited. The five most recent opportunities posted span coastal dune stabilization plantings (sea oats, railroad vine, sea purslane, dune sunflower), roadside landscaping and irrigation systems, environmental restoration and invasive plant removal, general plant purchases, and IT infrastructure installation — only two of which involve flowering plants or ornamentals in the traditional sense. Issuing bodies are primarily county governments and municipal authorities: Pasco County, Collier County, Pinellas County (all Florida), DeKalb County (Georgia), and the City of Dallas (Texas). The DeKalb County opportunity is plainly unrelated to the code, covering IT and low-voltage systems rather than plants.

The geographic spread of recent activity is concentrated in Florida (Pasco, Collier, Pinellas counties) and extends into Georgia and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include Pasco County's IFB for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (due April 14, 2026, budget capped at $120,000), Collier County's Quick Quote for dune planting supply and installation across 225,000 square feet with approximately 56,250 native plants (due March 13, 2026), Pinellas County's RFP for environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services across a five-year contract period (due July 29, 2025), and the City of Dallas's informal solicitation for plant purchases (due February 3, 2026). The code shows modest recent activity overall, and the opportunities posted suggest state and local governments are using this code to tag landscaping and native plant restoration work rather than ornamental chrysanthemum procurement specifically.
