UNSPSC 10252213: Live yellow cymbidium orchid

Live plant including the root ball of the yellow variety of cymbidium orchids

UNSPSC 10252213 Live yellow cymbidium orchid is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it diverge sharply from its nominal scope. Of three recent opportunities, only one—the City of Altamonte Springs, Florida's ITB26085KY for nursery plants and products—involves live plant material at all, and that solicitation covers annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seeds, and trees on an as-needed basis, not cymbidium orchids specifically. The Pasco County Board of County Commissioners' median landscape and irrigation construction project (IFBKM27004) is a site-work and construction contract with landscape installation as a component, not a plant procurement. The DeKalb County tennis center reconstruction (PE64400NONST2026000000260) is an IT and low-voltage infrastructure project with no connection to live plants. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its cymbidium orchid specification.

The geographic spread of recent opportunities spans Florida (Altamonte Springs and Pasco County) and Georgia (DeKalb County), but the issuing bodies and work types offer no clear pattern anchored to the code's stated commodity. Buyers pursuing this code should verify whether their target jurisdictions are using it for actual cymbidium orchid procurement or whether the tagging reflects misclassification in the local procurement system. The Altamonte Springs plants and products contract, due July 29, 2026, is the closest match to horticultural supply procurement, structured as a four-group as-needed arrangement with percentage-off discounting from published catalog prices, delivery within 15–30 days to two zip codes, and a one-year initial term with up to four one-year renewals.
