UNSPSC 10240000: Live carnations

Live plants including the root ball of the carnation

UNSPSC 10240000 Live carnations is a Family code that encompasses supply and installation of plants and plant materials for landscaping, dune restoration, environmental remediation, and general horticultural projects across state and local jurisdictions. The recent state and local opportunities show substantially broader scope than the code name suggests: sourcing includes not only ornamental plants but native dune vegetation, invasive species removal paired with native plantings, and full-service landscaping and irrigation systems. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span county governments (DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; Pinellas County, Florida) and city procurement offices (Dallas, Texas), with no school districts, transit authorities, or special-purpose districts appearing in recent activity. Pinellas County appears as a repeat buyer, seeking five-year environmental planting and maintenance services across multiple mitigation and wetland sites.

Recent activity clusters in Florida and Georgia, with one procurement from Dallas. Representative opportunities include Pasco County's IFB for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road (C.R. 524) for 2.95 miles, due April 14, 2026, encompassing plant materials, irrigation systems, and one-year warranty services capped at $120,000; Collier County's Quick Quote informal procurement for Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings, a post-hurricane coastal restoration project requiring supply and installation of 56,250 native dune plants with bid opening March 13, 2026; Pinellas County's RFP for five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services across wetlands and stormwater treatment ponds, with proposals due July 29, 2025; and the City of Dallas's informal solicitation for purchase of plants due February 3, 2026, delivered to a single Dallas location. Pasco County's procurement offers a local vendor preference program for bids under $1,000,000, though that provision does not apply due to state and federal funding sources.
