UNSPSC 10362026: Fresh cut phalaenopsis inscriptiosinensis orchid

Fresh cut bloom of the inscriptiosinensis variety of phalaenopsis orchid

UNSPSC 10362026 Fresh cut phalaenopsis inscriptiosinensis orchid is a Commodity code that maps poorly to recent state and local procurement activity. The code's narrow focus on a specific orchid species does not align with the broader plant and floral material being solicited across recent opportunities, which span general ornamental plants, hanging baskets with mixed plantings, and undifferentiated plant inventory. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily purchasing general horticultural supplies and landscape maintenance services rather than the specific cultivar the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include cities (City of Dallas), counties (Los Alamos County, DeKalb County), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving school districts (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas).

Recent opportunities show minimal geographic concentration. Los Alamos County, New Mexico posted an RFP for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance through June 4, 2026, requiring a valid nursery dealer license and weighted evaluation on qualifications (35 points), references (10 points), design and maintenance (35 points), and cost (20 points), with contract award targeted for July 14, 2026. The City of Dallas issued an Informal Solicitation (IFS) 215260 for plants with a proposal due date of February 3, 2026, requiring new, unopened inventory shipped FOB to 1775 California Crossing Road, Dallas, Texas, with a one-year warranty. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas posted a catalog discount bid solicitation (EDACT2628) due July 30, 2026 for educational activities and supplies with an estimated expenditure of $40.677 billion over a two-year term. DeKalb County, Georgia issued ITB 2026-076 for reconstruction of the DeKalb Tennis Center with IT and low-voltage infrastructure components, due July 13, 2026, which appears unrelated to the orchid code. The mismatch between the code's specific botanical scope and the actual purchases suggests this code sees limited, if any, relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.
