UNSPSC 10252045: Live phalaenopsis parishii orchid

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

UNSPSC 10252045 Live phalaenopsis parishii orchid is a Commodity code that nominally identifies a single plant species, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little connection to the code's specific scope. The most recent opportunities posted under this code are not orchid purchases; instead, they span coastal dune restoration plantings, landscape and irrigation installation, environmental remediation services including invasive plant removal and native species installation, IT and low-voltage infrastructure for a tennis center reconstruction, and general plant procurement. The mismatch between the code designation and actual solicitation content suggests this code is either rarely used for its nominal purpose or has been applied inconsistently by issuing bodies.

Activity under this code appears concentrated in Florida counties and municipalities. Collier County, Pasco County, and Pinellas County have posted multiple landscape and environmental planting solicitations; the City of Dallas and DeKalb County, Georgia, have also recently used this code designation, though for unrelated work. Representative recent opportunities include Pasco County's IFB KM-26-047 for landscaping and irrigation installation along Ridge Road with a contract ceiling of $120,000 and bid opening April 14, 2026; Collier County's quick-quote procurement for Pelican Bay Bay Colony Dune Plantings (approximately 56,250 native plants including sea oats, railroad vine, and sea purslane) due March 13, 2026; Pinellas County's five-year RFP for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services with services at mitigation sites, wetlands, and stormwater treatment areas; and the City of Dallas's IFS 215260 for plant purchase due February 3, 2026. The code shows insufficient recent activity specifically targeting live phalaenopsis parishii orchids to support a reliable market assessment.
