UNSPSC 10231615: Live elite pink pompon chrysanthemum

Live plant including the root ball of the elite pink variety of pompon chrysanthemum flowers

UNSPSC 10231615 Live elite pink pompon chrysanthemum is a Commodity code that nominally covers a specific ornamental plant variety, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under it span a far broader landscape and grounds maintenance scope. The code shows limited alignment between its narrow product definition and actual procurement activity. Of the three recent opportunities posted under this code, only one—the City of Altamonte Springs' ITB for nursery plants and products—involves live plants at all; that solicitation covers annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seeds, and trees supplied on an as-needed basis to municipal landscaping operations. The other two opportunities (Pasco County's median landscape and irrigation construction phase and DeKalb County's tennis center IT and low-voltage infrastructure rebuild) are plainly unrelated to nursery plants or floral materials, suggesting the code is being used inconsistently or incorrectly by issuing bodies.

Opportunities are concentrated in Florida and Georgia. The Altamonte Springs ITB, posted August 24, 2026 with a due date of July 29, 2026, is the only recent solicitation that directly engages the nursery plant supply chain; it requests bids by group (plugs, trees, potted plants, and grass seed) with delivery required to zip codes 32701 and 32714 within 15 to 30 days, award to the lowest-cost responsive bidder per group, and a contract term running from October 1, 2026 through five possible one-year renewal periods. Bidders must carry $1 million in Commercial General Liability and Commercial Auto Liability coverage, provide Florida Sunbiz registration and Business Tax Receipt, and verify compliance with state and federal procurement exclusion lists. The mismatch between the code's stated commodity and two of the three posted opportunities suggests this code warrants caution; opportunities aligned to actual nursery plant procurement appear sporadic.
