UNSPSC 10301500: Fresh cut blue or lavender or purple rose

Fresh cut blooms of blue or lavender or purple roses

UNSPSC 10301500 Fresh cut blue or lavender or purple rose is a Class code under which state and local governments procure landscape maintenance, horticultural installation, and garden design services tied to ornamental plantings and environmental stewardship projects. Recent solicitations show that issuing bodies are using this code to acquire full-spectrum grounds work—including plant material supply, seasonal color changes, irrigation system maintenance, integrated pest management, and habitat-support installations—rather than purchasing cut flowers for resale or indoor decoration. Counties and special-purpose districts dominate the recent activity; school districts appear as secondary buyers. Fulton County, Georgia has posted multiple landscape maintenance contracts, and Los Alamos County, New Mexico has solicited multi-year hanging basket design and maintenance services with qualified nursery dealers. The scope of work under this code includes quarterly garden stewardship (weeding, pruning, mulching, pressure washing), pollinator and rain garden upkeep, irrigation startup and shutdown with seasonal adjustments, plant material replacements, and interpretive signage installation supporting educational and environmental missions. Contractors typically must hold state nursery dealer licenses or landscape architect credentials and demonstrate knowledge of water-efficient and native plantings, integrated pest management, and wildlife habitat standards.

Geographic activity centers on the Southeast and Southwest, with recent opportunities in Georgia and New Mexico. Fulton County's South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden landscape maintenance ITB, posted October 16, 2026 with a November 30, 2026 response deadline, requires a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and covers 0.95 acres of pollinator and rain gardens with quarterly maintenance, irrigation management, and bat-box and bird-house installation through December 31, 2027 with optional renewals. Los Alamos County's Hanging Flower Baskets RFP26-55, posted May 7, 2026 with a June 4, 2026 deadline, solicits design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging baskets across town streets, requiring a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license, with evaluation emphasizing qualifications (35 points), design and maintenance approach (35 points), references (10 points), and cost (20 points); the County offers local, resident, and Native American veteran business preferences under state code.
