UNSPSC 10222200: Live banana flowers

Live plants including the root ball of banana flowers

UNSPSC 10222200 Live banana flowers is a Class code that nominally covers fresh banana flowers, but recent state and local solicitations show no purchasing activity aligned with that scope. The three most recent opportunities tagged to this code involve landscape and irrigation construction (Pasco County), nursery plants and landscaping products including annuals, trees, plugs, and grass seed (City of Altamonte Springs), and IT and low-voltage infrastructure for a tennis center reconstruction (DeKalb County). None of these solicitations reference banana flowers or closely related specialty produce. The code shows a mismatch between its nominal taxonomy definition and the work state and local governments are actually buying under it in recent months.

Geographic activity over the most recent quarter centers on Florida (Pasco County and City of Altamonte Springs) and Georgia (DeKalb County). The City of Altamonte Springs issued ITB 26085KY on August 24, 2026 for nursery plants and landscaping products on an as-needed basis with bids due July 29, 2026, specifying plugs, trees, grass seed, and potted plants across four product groups, with awards by group to lowest-cost responsive bidders and contract commencement October 1, 2026 for an initial one-year term with four one-year renewal options. Pasco County Board of County Commissioners solicited IFB IFBKM27004 on September 2, 2026 for median landscape and irrigation construction Phase II along approximately 9 miles of Little Road, with bids due October 6, 2026. The code does not reflect meaningful recent procurement volume in the banana flowers commodity itself and warrants investigation before pursuit.
