UNSPSC 10362060: Fresh cut phalaenopsis tetraspis orchid

Fresh cut bloom of the tetraspis variety of phalaenopsis orchid

UNSPSC 10362060 Fresh cut phalaenopsis tetraspis orchid is a Commodity code nominally addressing a specific horticultural product, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with the nominal scope. The code appears in solicitations for broad landscape maintenance and irrigation services, educational supplies procurement, and IT infrastructure installation—none of which involve fresh cut orchids or horticultural product supply. Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden Landscape (due November 30, 2026) encompasses quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens, including selective pruning, weeding, mulching, pressure washing, irrigation system management, and wildlife habitat enhancements across a 0.95-acre demonstration site. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida's ITB 26246ITBMST for Landscape and Irrigation Installation, Maintenance and Repair (due August 5, 2026) covers labor, materials, and equipment for landscape and irrigation work across school facilities, with mandatory pre-qualification of all subcontractors and material suppliers and compliance affidavits required for participation. Neither opportunity involves fresh cut orchids or similar cut-flower procurement.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span county government (Fulton County, DeKalb County, Georgia; Los Alamos County, New Mexico), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools, Florida), and regional purchasing cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, Texas). Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Florida, with outlier opportunities in New Mexico and Texas. Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for Hanging Flower Baskets Multi-Year (due June 4, 2026) solicits design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging baskets with a multi-year contract structure and weighted evaluation emphasizing qualifications (35 points) and design solutions (35 points); the County requires a New Mexico nursery dealer license and offers local and resident preferences under County Code Section 31-261(b). The code shows material misalignment between its nominal definition (fresh cut phalaenopsis tetraspis orchid) and actual procurement activity, which centers on landscape and irrigation maintenance services rather than horticultural products.
