FAQ

What work fits NAICS 111421?
  • Supply container-grown shade trees by specified caliper and height with tagged species identification and nursery source documentation.
  • Produce and deliver bare-root seedlings for reforestation or restoration projects with nursery grading, root protection, and seasonal delivery aligned to planting windows.
  • Provide ornamental shrubs and perennial plant stock with species labels, provenance documentation, and containerized handling appropriate for transplanting.
  • Grow and supply plug seedlings or tubelings for habitat restoration with nursery lot records, pest-free certifications when required, and bundled delivery to planting sites.
When is NAICS 111421 a weak fit?
  • Landscape installation and planting services - missing plant propagation and sale; installation contracts focus on on-site planting, grading, and irrigation rather than production of nursery stock.
  • Sod farming and turf production - missing woody nursery stock propagation and root-ball handling; turf operations focus on sod harvesting and delivery.
  • Wholesale plant brokerage or distribution - missing propagation and growth operations; brokers resell nursery stock without producing or propagating the plants themselves.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 111421?
  • Line items specify botanical names, caliper, container size, nursery grade, and require nursery source and lot documentation.
  • Solicitation requests phytosanitary certificates, species provenance records, container labeling, and delivery windows tied to planting seasons.
  • Performance requirements include acceptance inspections for root-ball integrity, handling standards at delivery, and establishment requirements defined in the solicitation.
