UNSPSC 10417702: Dried cut forsythia giraldiana

Dried cut bloom of the giraldiana variety of forsythia

UNSPSC 10417702 Dried cut forsythia giraldiana is a Commodity code that captures botanical and horticultural specimens used in environmental restoration and landscaping projects across state and local jurisdictions. The recent solicitation activity under this code reflects a narrow but distinct procurement pattern: state and local governments are buying native plant installation, site maintenance, and ecosystem restoration services that include dried and living plant materials as part of comprehensive environmental management contracts. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county governments and municipal park departments, with Pinellas County (Florida) appearing as a notable buyer seeking five-year environmental planting and monitoring services for wetlands, stormwater treatment facilities, and surface water conveyances.

Pinellas County's Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services RFP, posted June 30, 2025 and due July 29, 2025, represents the primary recent opportunity under this code; the solicitation explicitly includes a comprehensive listing of 150 native plant species and requires contractors to hold State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and Aquatic Category 5A certifications for invasive and exotic plant removal and native plant installation. The contract spans 2025 through 2030 with potential 12-month extensions, structured on an as-needed basis with SBE participation provisions and a $100,000 not-to-exceed threshold for individual work assignments. A secondary and largely unrelated solicitation—Columbus Consolidated Government's request for arts and craft and recreational supplies—was posted February 4, 2026 and due February 25, 2026, but contains no botanical or environmental content material to this code. Activity under UNSPSC 10417702 remains sparse; Florida represents the only state showing recent relevant procurement, and the code sees little volume compared to broader horticultural and environmental services categories.
