UNSPSC 10452054: Dried cut phalaenopsis schilleriana orchid

Dried cut bloom of the schilleriana variety of phalaenopsis orchid

UNSPSC 10452054 Dried cut phalaenopsis schilleriana orchid is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single ornamental plant product, but the recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little relevance to the code's stated scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code is Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for landscape maintenance services at the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden, a broad facilities-maintenance contract covering quarterly upkeep of pollinator and rain gardens, irrigation systems, plantings, and interpretive signage—work that falls outside the narrow scope of dried orchid procurement. The issuing body is a county government, specifically Fulton County's purchasing office.

The opportunity is located in Georgia, with bids due November 30, 2026. The contract runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals through 2029. The contractor must employ a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect, demonstrate knowledge of water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards, and manage selective pruning, weeding, mulching, pressure washing, irrigation maintenance, and seasonal plantings across a 0.95-acre site. The county has identified certified MBE availability at 34.71% and FBE availability at 11.45% for this construction work category. Insurance requirements include Workers Compensation, Commercial General Liability of at least $1 million per occurrence, Business Automobile Liability, Umbrella Liability, and Professional E&O Liability. A pre-bid conference is scheduled for November 4 and a site visit for November 10. The code shows limited recent procurement activity and the single opportunity posted under it does not align with dried orchid procurement—suggesting either a data classification error or minimal state and local demand for this specific commodity.
