UNSPSC 10362104: Fresh cut fatima dendrobium orchid

Fresh cut bloom of the fatima variety of dendrobium orchids

UNSPSC 10362104 Fresh cut fatima dendrobium orchid is a Commodity code that encompasses floral materials and plantings used in landscaping and horticultural maintenance work. Recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code reveal that issuing bodies are actually soliciting landscape maintenance, installation, and irrigation services rather than cut flowers themselves — the code appears to capture ornamental plant materials as line items within broader grounds-care contracts. The work includes seasonal plantings, perennial maintenance, mulching, pressure washing, irrigation system servicing, and specialty garden upkeep across demonstration gardens, school facilities, and municipal parks. Issuing bodies include county governments (Fulton County, DeKalb County, Los Alamos County, Hillsborough County), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). Contractors must often hold state-issued licenses (nursery dealer in New Mexico, landscape architect credentials in Georgia) and comply with pesticide certification, equipment operation, and site-specific environmental standards such as water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat protocols.

Recent opportunities span Georgia, Florida, New Mexico, and Texas. Fulton County, Georgia issued ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden landscape services with a response deadline of November 30, 2026, emphasizing pollinator and rain garden maintenance with quarterly site walkthroughs and integrated pest management. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida solicited landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair services under ITB 26246ITBMST with a response deadline of August 5, 2026, encouraging small business and minority-owned firm participation. Los Alamos County, New Mexico released RFP 26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across town streets, due June 4, 2026, requiring a valid nursery dealer license and weighted evaluation on qualifications (35 points), references (10 points), design and maintenance solutions (35 points), and cost (20 points), with local and resident business preferences available. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas posted a cooperative catalog discount bid (EDACT2628) on educational activities and supplies with an estimated two-year expenditure of $40.677 billion, suggesting aggregate demand across multiple school districts, though this opportunity's relevance to fresh dendrobium orchids specifically remains unclear.
