UNSPSC 10252021: Live phalaenopsis fuscata orchid

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

UNSPSC 10252021 Live phalaenopsis fuscata orchid is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's title specifies a single orchid species, yet the three most recent opportunities tagged to this code solicite landscape construction, nursery plants and products procurement, and information technology infrastructure — none of which involve live phalaenopsis fuscata orchids or specialty botanical specimens. The Pasco County Board of County Commissioners issued an IFB in September 2026 for median landscape and irrigation construction along approximately 9 miles of Little Road in Florida; the City of Altamonte Springs, Florida posted an ITB in August 2026 for general landscaping plants and products including annuals, plugs, grass seeds, and trees on an as-needed basis; and DeKalb County, Georgia issued an ITB in June 2026 for IT and low-voltage infrastructure reconstruction at a tennis center. The mismatch between the code's nominal commodity and the work actually being solicited suggests either miscoding in source systems or misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how this particular code is applied in practice.

Recent activity is concentrated in Florida and Georgia. The City of Altamonte Springs contract commences October 1, 2026 for an initial one-year term with four optional one-year renewals. Bidders must submit a percentage-off discount from published catalog prices and a flat delivery fee, provide proof of Florida Sunbiz registration and a current Business Tax Receipt, and verify compliance with the State of Florida Scrutinized List and the Federal Excluded Parties List. Given the narrow and unrelated scope of recent opportunities, this code does not represent a viable procurement category for live phalaenopsis fuscata orchids or related specialty plants at the state and local level.
