UNSPSC 10452030: Dried cut phalaenopsis lindenii orchid

Dried cut bloom of the lindenii variety of phalaenopsis orchid

UNSPSC 10452030 Dried cut phalaenopsis lindenii orchid is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific horticultural product—preserved orchid specimens—but shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent solicitation in the database is Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for landscape maintenance services at the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden, posted October 16, 2026, with bids due November 30, 2026. This opportunity requests ongoing quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens, including selective pruning, weeding, mulch application, irrigation system management, seasonal plantings, and habitat installation—services that fall squarely within landscape maintenance and horticultural grounds care, not acquisition of preserved orchid specimens. The scope specifies native grasses, trees, shrubs, and perennials, with no mention of dried or preserved orchid materials.

The mismatch between the code's nominal product classification and the actual work being solicited suggests either a coding error in the state or local posting system or that this Commodity code sees minimal relevant procurement activity in the state and local market. Fulton County appears to be the sole identified buyer under this code in the recent-opportunity block, and the work is rooted in Georgia. The Fulton County contract runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals subject to Board approval; the county requires a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and emphasizes water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards. Award is based on lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with certified MBE availability at 34.71% and FBE availability at 11.45%.
