UNSPSC 10452012: Dried cut phalaenopsis cochlearis orchid

Dried cut bloom of the cochlearis variety of phalaenopsis orchid

UNSPSC 10452012 Dried cut phalaenopsis cochlearis orchid is a Commodity code with minimal direct purchasing activity in recent state and local contract opportunities. The code nominally describes a specific dried orchid product, but recent solicitations posted under this code do not actually procure dried orchids or related horticultural products. Instead, the opportunities tagged with this code involve environmental services (wetland restoration, native plant installation, invasive species removal) and general arts and craft supplies for parks and recreation programs — work that falls outside the scope of the code's stated commodity.

Geographic activity is geographically dispersed across at least two states. Pinellas County, Florida issued an RFP in June 2025 for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services (Response due July 29, 2025), a five-year contract with SBE participation thresholds and specific environmental certifications required. Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia issued Request for Bids No. 26-0014 in February 2026 for arts and craft, hobby, and recreational supplies on an annual contract valued between $30,000 and $50,000 (Response due February 25, 2026). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or inconsistent code assignment by the issuing bodies. Firms pursuing this code should verify the actual commodity or service scope with the procuring agency before bid preparation.
