UNSPSC 10417201: Dried cut alpinum thistle

Dried cut bloom of the alpinum variety of thistles

UNSPSC 10417201 Dried cut alpinum thistle is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it show no purchasing activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. Pinellas County's February 2026 RFP for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services solicits invasive and exotic plant removal, native plant installation, site maintenance, and regulatory-compliant monitoring across wetlands, stormwater treatment ponds, and surface water conveyances—work that falls squarely within ecological restoration and environmental management, not dried cut thistle procurement. Columbus Consolidated Government's February 2026 RFB for arts and craft, hobby and recreational supplies for the Parks and Recreation Department's After School Program, Community Schools, Seniors, Special Populations, and Recreation divisions is equally unrelated to the code's stated product line. The code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

The two posted opportunities reflect distinct issuing-body types—a county environmental services RFP and a city parks-and-recreation RFB—and different geographic locations (Florida and Georgia), but neither represents actual purchasing under UNSPSC 10417201. The Pinellas County solicitation, due July 29, 2025, seeks proposals on an as-needed basis with potential two 12-month extensions, includes SBE participation thresholds, and requires State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and Aquatic Category 5A applicator certifications. The Columbus RFB, due February 25, 2026, expects $30,000 to $50,000 in annual demand and allows award to multiple vendors, with a two-year base term and up to three one-year renewals. Neither opportunity is actionable for suppliers of dried cut alpinum thistle.
