UNSPSC 10362405: Fresh cut tickle me pink vanda orchid

Fresh cut bloom of the tickle me pink vanda variety of orchids

UNSPSC 10362405 Fresh cut tickle me pink vanda orchid is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific ornamental flower variety, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span landscape maintenance services, irrigation installation and repair, educational supplies catalogs, information technology infrastructure, and hanging flower basket design and installation—none of which involve procurement of cut flowers or orchids. Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden Landscape (due November 30, 2026) covers quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens, including selective pruning, mulching, irrigation system management, and habitat installation, with no cut-flower or orchid component. Hillsborough County Public Schools' ITB 26246ITBMST for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance and repair similarly addresses grounds upkeep across school facilities rather than floral procurement. The remaining opportunities—Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's educational supplies catalog bid, DeKalb County's tennis center IT infrastructure reconstruction, and Los Alamos County's hanging flower baskets RFP (due June 4, 2026)—represent unrelated commodity categories that appear to have been miscoded.

The code currently shows no active state and local buying for fresh cut vanda orchids or similar cut-flower products. Jurisdictions issuing under this code include county governments (Fulton County, Hillsborough County, DeKalb County), school districts (HCPS), education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), and special-purpose districts (Los Alamos County), with activity concentrated in Georgia, Florida, Texas, and New Mexico. A business development professional evaluating this code should note the mismatch between the code's stated scope and actual recent procurement, suggesting either systematic miscoding by these issuing bodies or dormancy in state and local buying for this specific orchid variety.
