UNSPSC 10252005: Live phalaenopsis bastianii orchid

Live plant including the root ball of the bastianii variety of phalaenopsis orchid

UNSPSC 10252005 Live phalaenopsis bastianii orchid is a Commodity code that captures individual plant species purchases by state and local governments, but the recent activity under this code does not reflect orchid procurement. The five recent opportunities tagged to this code span landscaping and irrigation installation, coastal dune restoration, environmental planting and wetland management, and general plant purchasing — none of which specifically procure live phalaenopsis bastianii orchids. The issuing bodies include county governments (DeKalb County, Georgia; Pasco County, Florida; Collier County, Florida; Pinellas County, Florida) and a city (Dallas, Texas), indicating that the code activity is spread across municipal and county-level facilities and environmental management programs rather than horticultural or specialty plant procurement.

Recent opportunities show landscape and habitat restoration work predominating. Pasco County issued an IFB for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road with a response date of April 14, 2026, covering native tree, shrub, palm, and groundcover installation to Florida Department of Agriculture Grade Number 1 standards; Collier County posted a Quick Quote on March 13, 2026 for coastal dune planting with approximately 56,250 native dune plants including sea oats and railroad vine; Pinellas County released an RFP on February 26, 2026 for a five-year environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance contract across wetlands and stormwater sites; and the City of Dallas issued an informal solicitation on January 28, 2026 with response due February 3, 2026 for a general plant purchase with delivery to a specified address. The code shows no recent activity specific to orchid procurement, and the mismatch between the Commodity code name and the actual work being bought suggests that this code may be incorrectly applied to landscape and native vegetation work that belongs in broader horticultural or site restoration categories. Activity is concentrated in Florida and Texas with no orchid-specific demand signals evident.
