UNSPSC 10252060: Live phalaenopsis tetraspis orchid

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

UNSPSC 10252060 Live phalaenopsis tetraspis orchid is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single plant species, yet recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal alignment with the orchid specification. The three most recent opportunities tagged to this code encompass broad landscaping plant procurement (annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seeds, trees), median landscape and irrigation construction, and IT infrastructure for a recreation facility — none of which specifically target phalaenopsis tetraspis orchids or orchids as a product class. The mismatch suggests either inconsistent or overly broad coding by issuing bodies, or that the code is being applied as a catch-all for general nursery plant and landscaping services rather than as a narrow orchid-specific commodity.

Activity under this code in recent months spans Florida and Georgia. The City of Altamonte Springs, Florida issued ITB 26-085-KY (Nursery Plants & Products, re-bid) with a due date of July 29, 2026, seeking annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seeds, and trees on an as-needed basis across four product groups with options to renew for up to five years. Pasco County Board of County Commissioners posted IFB KM27004 (Little Road Medians Phase II—Landscape/Irrigation Construction) on September 2, 2026, with bids due October 6, 2026, for median landscape design, planting, and irrigation work along approximately 9 miles of Little Road. Given the disconnect between the code's nominal orchid scope and the landscape-services character of recent solicitations, firms pursuing opportunities under this code should verify the actual commodity or service line being requested in each RFP or IFB rather than rely on the UNSPSC designation alone.
