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 cut flowers and foliage for use in public spaces, facilities, and institutional settings—work state and local governments actually buy includes hanging flower baskets for streetscapes, landscape plantings for parks and recreational facilities, and bulk cut flowers for government buildings and events. The recent opportunities show that purchasing bodies include county parks and recreation divisions, city horticultural and facilities departments, and regional cooperative purchasing entities that aggregate school district and municipal demand. Scope ranges from installation and seasonal maintenance of hanging baskets with live plant replacement guarantees to purchase of fresh cut flowers and potted plants delivered FOB to designated facilities, with vendors often required to hold nursery dealer licenses and comply with plant health and quality standards.

Recent activity spans Texas, New Mexico, and Georgia. Los Alamos County, New Mexico posted an RFP on May 7, 2026 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across town streets, with proposals due June 4, 2026 and preference designations for local and resident businesses under state law. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation (IFS) on January 28, 2026 for purchase of plants with a February 3, 2026 response date and FOB delivery to a single Dallas address. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, posted a cooperative purchasing catalog discount bid (EDACT2628) on June 15, 2026 for educational activities and supplies with a July 30, 2026 deadline and an estimated two-year expenditure of $40.677 billion across the cooperative's network—though the scope description does not isolate fresh cut flowers or plants as a line item within that broader educational supplies catalog. Geographic concentration tilts toward Texas, with secondary activity in New Mexico and Georgia.
