UNSPSC 10362017: Fresh cut phalaenopsis equestris orchid

Fresh cut bloom of the equestris variety of phalaenopsis orchid

UNSPSC 10362017 Fresh cut phalaenopsis equestris orchid is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure potted flowering plants, live greenery, and horticultural materials for public landscaping, beautification, and recreation projects. Recent solicitations show municipalities and counties buying cut flowers and potted plants for parks, municipal grounds, and community spaces—though recent opportunities tagged to this code span a broader range of plant procurement than the specific orchid species. The issuing bodies include counties (Los Alamos County, New Mexico; DeKalb County, Georgia), cities (Dallas, Texas), and regional education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, Texas). Demand comes from parks and recreation departments, municipal beautification programs, and facilities management functions within local government.
