UNSPSC 10226800: Live single species or varieties of flowers continued

Live plant including the root ball of single species or varieties of flowers.

UNSPSC 10226800 Live single species or varieties of flowers continued, a Class code, describes landscape and grounds maintenance products and services that state and local governments actually buy — though the recent opportunities block shows a significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope (live flowers) and the work being solicited. The recent records show no activity purchasing flowers themselves; instead, they document construction, infrastructure, maintenance repair, and operations (MRO) procurement across water treatment, airport improvements, roadway work, HVAC systems, roofing, and related trades. The issuing bodies include cities (Orlando, Fort Worth, Beaverton, Palm Bay, New London, Palo Alto, Pembroke Pines), counties (Collier, Ocean, Pasco, Hillsborough, Collin, Sacramento), a town (Los Gatos), transit authorities (Collier Area Transit), water districts (West Basin Municipal Water District, Tucson Water), and airport authorities (Lee County Port Authority, Sacramento County Department of Airports). A small subset of opportunities — notably the Town of Palm Beach solicitation for seven Lignum-Vitae trees and the City of Norwalk request for tree and shrub supply and planting — align with the code's stated scope, but these represent a negligible portion of recent activity tagged under this code.

The geographic spread reflects national activity with concentration in Florida (Orlando, Fort Worth, Palm Bay, Collier, Hillsborough, Pembroke Pines), Arizona (Phoenix, Tucson, Kingman), California (Palo Alto, Pasadena, Los Gatos, Beaverton), New Jersey (Ocean County, Meriden, New London), and Connecticut jurisdictions, alongside activity in Texas, Michigan, and other states. Representative opportunities spanning the narrower flower-related scope include the Town of Palm Beach RFB for Lignum-Vitae tree installation (September 24, 2026, response date) and the City of Norwalk RFP for tree and shrub supply and planting (August 4, 2026, response date). The bulk of coded opportunities — including the City of Orlando soil stabilization pressure grouting, the City of Fort Worth irrigation and grounds maintenance services and parts, the City of Beaverton water main replacement, and Collier County transit fuel station construction — involve specialized trades, capital construction, and infrastructure work that fall outside the nominal code definition, signaling either systematic mis-tagging in the state and local procurement system or abandonment of this code in actual practice. Pursue only if your firm has active horticultural or landscape-planting capacity; otherwise, this code shows limited decision-relevant recent opportunity aligned with its stated scope.
