UNSPSC 10362024: Fresh cut phalaenopsis hieroglyphica orchid

Fresh cut bloom of the hieroglyphica variety of phalaenopsis orchid

UNSPSC 10362024 Fresh cut phalaenopsis hieroglyphica orchid is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to purchase ornamental plants and floral materials for landscaping, beautification, and maintenance projects at public facilities, parks, and municipal grounds. The recent solicitations show that governments are actually buying broader landscape maintenance and installation services—including plant procurement, irrigation system upkeep, seasonal plantings, and habitat enhancements—rather than orchids specifically. Issuing bodies include county governments (Fulton County, Georgia; DeKalb County, Georgia; Los Alamos County, New Mexico), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools, Florida), and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles serving education agencies (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, Texas). The work spans grounds maintenance contracts requiring licensed landscape architects, qualified nursery dealers, and compliance with local preferences and set-aside programs such as MBE and FBE certifications.

Recent opportunities show activity concentrated in Georgia and Florida, with one contract in New Mexico and one cooperative vehicle spanning Texas school districts. Representative recent solicitations include Fulton County's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden landscape maintenance (response due November 30, 2026), which requires quarterly care of pollinator and rain gardens with selective pruning, irrigation management, and integrated pest management across a 0.95-acre scope; Hillsborough County Public Schools' ITB 26246ITBMST for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair services (response due August 5, 2026, though posted September 28, 2026); and Los Alamos County's RFP 2655 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets on municipal streets (response due June 4, 2026). Los Alamos County's procurement highlights multi-year contract structure with pricing required across seven potential years and weighted evaluation favoring qualifications and design approach over cost. The code shows active state and local solicitation activity but the recent postings emphasize comprehensive grounds-maintenance services, irrigation systems, and native plant stewardship rather than fresh-cut orchids as a primary procurement line item.
