UNSPSC 10301600: Fresh cut chocolate or brown rose

Fresh cut blooms of chocolate or brown roses

UNSPSC 10301600 Fresh cut chocolate or brown rose is a Class code that covers ornamental plant material and floral products, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show minimal alignment with its stated scope. The available recent solicitations include landscape maintenance services, hanging flower basket design and installation, educational supplies, and information technology infrastructure — none of which represent the procurement of fresh cut flowers or roses. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the opportunities or a fundamental disconnect between the code's nominal definition and how state and local procurement offices are currently deploying it.

The geographic spread of the few tangentially relevant opportunities spans Georgia (Fulton County), Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative), and New Mexico (Los Alamos County). Representative recent activity includes Fulton County's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden landscape maintenance (response due November 30, 2026), which involves quarterly upkeep of pollinator and rain gardens; Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across town streets (response due June 4, 2026, awarded July 14, 2026); and Hillsborough County Public Schools' ITB 26246ITBMST for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair services (response due August 5, 2026). None of these solicit fresh cut flowers or roses as a procurable product. The code shows little relevant recent activity and appears misapplied to the available opportunities.
