UNSPSC 10252044: Live phalaenopsis pantherina orchid

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

UNSPSC 10252044 Live phalaenopsis pantherina orchid, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The three most recent opportunities tagged to this code involve landscape and irrigation construction for a county median project in Florida, general nursery plants and landscaping products for a city in Florida, and IT and low-voltage infrastructure installation for a county recreation facility in Georgia—none of which center on phalaenopsis orchids as a distinct line item. The Pasco County Board of County Commissioners posted an IFB for median landscape and irrigation construction Phase II along Little Road in Florida (due October 6, 2026), and the City of Altamonte Springs posted an ITB for general nursery plants and products on an as-needed basis (re-bid, bids due July 29, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. ET). The Altamonte Springs ITB encompasses annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seeds, and trees across four product groups with volumes ranging from 6 to 2,500 units annually per variety; the contract runs one year initially with four optional one-year renewals, requiring $1,000,000 Commercial General Liability insurance and compliance with Florida Sunbiz registration, Business Tax Receipt, and multiple state and federal attestation requirements.

Recent activity under this code is geographically concentrated in Florida and Georgia, with no clear pattern of repeat state or local buyers pursuing phalaenopsis orchids specifically. The DeKalb County IFB for tennis center reconstruction (bids due July 13, 2026) is unrelated to plant procurement and appears to be a coding error. The two landscape-related opportunities suggest that state and local governments may tag general nursery and plant purchases to this orchid-specific code as a default, rather than maintaining distinct commodity codes for flowering plants by species. Firms pursuing this code should treat it as a watch-list category where actual purchasing intent may diverge significantly from the nominal scope; orchid-specific opportunities remain unsupported in the recent record.
