UNSPSC 10451603: Dried cut mokara calypso orchid

Dried cut bloom of the mokara calypso variety of orchids

UNSPSC 10451603 Dried cut mokara calypso orchid is a Commodity code that nominally covers specialty ornamental flowers, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal substantive alignment with the category name. Fulton County, Georgia's October 2026 ITB for landscape maintenance services at the South Fulton Demonstration Garden addresses living plant material — native grasses, trees, shrubs, perennials, pollinator and rain gardens, and seasonal plantings — rather than dried cut flowers. The scope covers quarterly maintenance inclusive of selective pruning, weeding, mulching with pine straw and uncolored hardwood mulch, pressure washing, fertilizer application per plant guidance, integrated pest management, irrigation system startup and shutdown with filter cleaning and valve adjustment, installation of interpretive signage with bat boxes and bird houses, and quarterly site walkthroughs with inventory and action planning. The contractor must employ a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and demonstrate competency in water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards. This represents the singular recent state and local opportunity available under the code.

Fulton County is the only issuing body reflected in recent activity under UNSPSC 10451603. The South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden ITB (26ITB1652296A-KM) carries a response deadline of November 30, 2026, with a pre-bid conference scheduled for November 4 and a recommended site visit on November 10 to assess the 0.95-acre scope. Contract term runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals contingent on Board of Commissioners approval. Award goes to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; the county reports MBE availability at 34.71% and FBE availability at 11.45% for this construction work category. This code shows no broader geographic spread or pattern of repeat issuing bodies in recent procurement.
