UNSPSC 10222201: Live orange banana flower

Live plant including the root ball of orange variety of banana variety of flowers

UNSPSC 10222201 Live orange banana flower is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code encompass IT and low-voltage infrastructure installation, landscape and irrigation system design and installation, coastal dune restoration using native plants, environmental planting and invasive species management, and generic plant purchases—none of which involve banana flowers, orange or otherwise. State and local procurement offices are using this code to solicit work across a range of plant-related services, from materials supply to installation to long-term environmental management, but the code's name does not reflect the breadth or nature of what is actually being bought.

Recent activity spans Florida counties (Pasco, Collier, and Pinellas), Georgia (DeKalb County), and Texas (Dallas), with issuing bodies including county boards of commissioners, county environmental or public works divisions, and city procurement offices. Representative opportunities include Pasco County's IFB for 2.95 miles of landscape and irrigation installation on Ridge Road (due April 14, 2026), Collier County's Quick Quote for Pelican Bay coastal dune plantings with approximately 56,250 native plants (due March 13, 2026), Pinellas County's five-year RFP for environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services (due July 29, 2025), and the City of Dallas's informal solicitation for plant purchases (due February 3, 2026). The code's misalignment with actual procurement scope suggests either a data-quality issue in how opportunities are tagged or a need to verify the correct commodity classification before pursuing work in this family.
