UNSPSC 10232018: Live hasting pompon chrysanthemum

Live plant including the root ball of the hasting variety of pompon chrysanthemum flowers

UNSPSC 10232018 Live hasting pompon chrysanthemum is a Commodity code that nominally designates a single ornamental flowering plant variety, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it do not reflect purchases of that specific plant material. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code span landscape construction, general nursery plant procurement, and unrelated infrastructure work, indicating a significant mismatch between the code's narrow botanical scope and the actual work state and local buyers are tagging to it. The Pasco County Board of County Commissioners solicited landscape and irrigation construction services across nine miles of median work; the City of Altamonte Springs issued an as-needed nursery plant and product ITB covering annuals, plugs, trees, and grass seed; and DeKalb County posted a tennis facility reconstruction project with IT infrastructure components—none of which align with procurement of live hasting pompon chrysanthemums as a commodity input. The issuing bodies include a county public works operation, a city procurement function, and a county parks/IT hybrid project.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Florida and Georgia. The City of Altamonte Springs' nursery plant ITB, due July 29, 2026, was the most clearly aligned with ornamental plantings, structured as an as-needed, when-needed contract with four product groups (plugs, trees, potted plants, and grass seed) available from October 1, 2026 through up to five one-year renewal terms; the city will award by group to the lowest-cost responsive bidder and may split awards across multiple contractors. Pasco County's Little Road Medians Phase II landscape and irrigation construction IFB, posted September 2, 2026 with bids due October 6, 2026, encompasses design, planting, and irrigation system installation across approximately nine miles. The code shows no coherent procurement signal for the specific plant variety it nominally describes, and the opportunities listed under it suggest either broad tagging error within these jurisdictions' systems or the use of this code as a catch-all placeholder for horticultural and landscaping work that does not fit a botanical-commodity framework.
