UNSPSC 10226094: Stephanotis floribunda

Its scientific name, Stephanotis floribunda, comes from the Greek words stephanos (crown) and otis (ear), possibly referring to the way the flowers form in clusters. It is characterized by producing a white and waxy flower, which exhales quite a lot of perfume.

UNSPSC 10226094 Stephanotis floribunda is a Commodity code identifying a single ornamental flowering plant species. State and local governments procure stephanotis under this code for landscaping, grounds beautification, and horticultural projects at municipal facilities, parks, and public buildings. Recent solicitation activity shows minimal direct purchasing of stephanotis as a discrete line item; the code does not align with the contract opportunities present in the database. The representative opportunities tagged to this code—soil stabilization grouting, rapid response construction services, window replacement, MRO supplies, vactor services, chemical-resistant parts for water systems, transit shelter procurement, fencing repairs, and vegetation management—contain no stephanotis specifications or landscaping plant procurement elements. This mismatch indicates the code is either misapplied to these opportunities or reflects outdated taxonomic tagging in the source data.

Activity under UNSPSC 10226094 does not support a current pursue decision. State and local procurement for stephanotis floribunda appears dormant or infrequently tagged in recent notices. Firms serving the ornamental horticulture supply channel should monitor broader landscape plant codes and grounds maintenance contracts (such as those appearing under soil and turf work, general landscaping services, or parks department beautification initiatives) rather than rely on this specific commodity code. The sparse activity suggests limited state and local demand for stephanotis as a standalone procurement item in the current market cycle.
