UNSPSC 10252046: Live phalaenopsis petelotii orchid

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

UNSPSC 10252046 Live phalaenopsis petelotii orchid is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The three posted opportunities in the source record do not reflect purchases of live orchids; instead, they cover landscape and irrigation construction (Pasco County), general nursery plants and landscaping products including annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seeds, and trees (City of Altamonte Springs), and IT infrastructure for a tennis center reconstruction (DeKalb County). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and these solicitations signals that the code carries little relevant activity in state and local procurement right now. When orchids or specialty ornamental plants do appear in municipal or county purchasing, they typically fall under broader nursery-supply or landscaping codes rather than this narrow Commodity designation.

The geographic spread of the sparse recent activity centers on Florida (Pasco County and the City of Altamonte Springs) and Georgia (DeKalb County). The City of Altamonte Springs' ITB 26085KY for nursery plants and products, due July 29, 2026, represents the closest match to horticultural procurement — the city seeks landscaping plants on an as-needed basis with four product groups (plugs, trees, potted plants, and grass seed) and allows bidders to submit proposals for one or more groups, with awards by group to the lowest-cost responsive bidder. The contract commences October 1, 2026 for one year with four optional one-year renewals. However, this opportunity does not specify live orchids as a line item, and the code itself shows no clear demand signal in current state and local procurement practice.
