UNSPSC 10161907: Dried pressed flowers

UNSPSC 10161907 Dried pressed flowers is a Commodity code that sees minimal relevant state and local procurement activity. The two recent opportunities posted under this code—Pinellas County's environmental planting and maintenance RFP and Columbus Consolidated Government's arts and craft supplies RFB—diverge sharply from the code's nominal scope. Pinellas County's solicitation centers on invasive plant removal, native plant installation, wetland ecology, and environmental monitoring across stormwater ponds and wetlands; the work requires State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and Aquatic Category 5A certifications and involves comprehensive site management over a five-year term, not procurement of dried pressed flowers. Columbus's RFB seeks general arts and craft and recreational supplies for parks and recreation programming, with annual volumes of $30,000 to $50,000 across after-school and community programs, again unrelated to the dried-flowers commodity. Neither solicitation describes dried, pressed, or preserved flowers as a line item or procurement focus.

The code shows no identifiable pattern of state and local purchasing aligned with its stated commodity. Pinellas County (Florida) and Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia) are the only recent issuing bodies, and both appear to have been tagged with this code in error. Without verifiable recent opportunities actually seeking dried pressed flowers, the code presents no clear market signal for business development activity at this time.
