UNSPSC 21102302: Greenhouse pots

UNSPSC 21102302 Greenhouse pots (Commodity) shows minimal alignment between the code name and actual state and local procurement activity. Recent solicitations tagged under this code cover live trees and shrubs for installation and landscaping maintenance, tree replacement, nursery plant supply on an as-needed basis, and floral design services—none of which centers on greenhouse pots as a discrete product category. The issuing bodies include counties (Collier County, DeKalb County), cities (Palm Bay, Altamonte Springs, Tarpon Springs), and a university (University of Texas at Austin). Procurement activity is concentrated in Florida, with one Georgia opportunity and one Texas opportunity. The work being bought under this code tag spans landscape beautification and maintenance—either live plant material for installation and as-needed replenishment, or event floral services—rather than horticultural production supplies or containers.

Recent representative opportunities include Collier County's ITB 26-8667 for plants, trees, and shrubs for the Pelican Bay Services Division (due July 8, 2026), which covers 78 line items of plant materials in sizes from 4-inch pots to 25-gallon containers with historical annual expenditures near $300,000 and firm pricing over a three-year initial term; the City of Altamonte Springs' ITB-26-067-FH for nursery plants and products (due April 24, 2026), organized into four groups of annuals, plugs, trees, shrubs, and grass seed on an as-needed basis with a three-year term plus two one-year renewal options; and the City of Tarpon Springs' ITB for tree planting and installation of 34 trees with delivery and 90-day replacement guarantee (due April 22, 2026), partially funded by a $14,800 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services grant. The code tag appears misaligned with actual procurement scope; state and local buyers under this category are purchasing finished landscape plants and installation services, not greenhouse production equipment or containers.
