UNSPSC 10251900: Live arachnis orchids

Live plants including the root ball of the arachnis type of orchids

UNSPSC 10251900 Live arachnis orchids (Class) shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code name specifies live orchids, yet the recent opportunities on record span IT and low-voltage infrastructure installation, landscaping and irrigation systems, coastal dune restoration planting, environmental remediation services, and general plant procurement — none of which center on arachnis orchid supply or installation. The issuing bodies include a county government (DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; Pinellas County, Florida) and a city government (City of Dallas, Texas), but the work they are actually buying does not match the code's stated commodity.

The geographic concentration is in Florida and one instance in Georgia and Texas, driven by recent IFB and RFP notices from Pasco County (Ridge Road landscaping and irrigation, IFB KM-26-047, due April 14, 2026); Collier County (Pelican Bay dune restoration, Quick Quote, due March 13, 2026); Pinellas County (five-year environmental planting and monitoring contract, RFP 250628RFP, due July 29, 2025); and the City of Dallas (general plant purchase, IFS 215260, due February 3, 2026). The code exhibits little relevant recent activity when evaluated against its nominal commodity scope; procurement professionals should verify the code assignment with the issuing body before pursuing work under this classification, as the mislabeling suggests the code may not be the appropriate UNSPSC category for the plant-related services and products state and local governments are actually soliciting.
