UNSPSC 10301608: Fresh cut sunny leonidas rose

Fresh cut bloom of the sunny leonidas variety of rose

UNSPSC 10301608 Fresh cut sunny leonidas rose is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it show little alignment with fresh florals—the code appears to serve as a catchall tag for ornamental plant and horticultural services across education, parks, and municipal procurement. The work actually being solicited includes hanging flower basket design, installation and seasonal maintenance; procurement of potted plants and nursery stock for municipal landscaping; and bundled educational activity supplies through cooperative purchasing vehicles. Issuing bodies span Texas education service centers and cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative), county parks and recreation departments (Los Alamos County), municipal procurement offices (City of Dallas), and county general-services agencies (DeKalb County). The code also captures unrelated infrastructure work—a recent DeKalb County posting for IT and low-voltage system reconstruction at a tennis center appears to have been miscoded and does not reflect horticultural procurement.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and the Southwest. Los Alamos County in New Mexico posted RFP26-55 for design, installation, and multi-year maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across town-site streets, with proposals due June 4, 2026 and a pre-proposal conference on May 13, 2026; the scope requires nursery dealer licensing and holds the contractor responsible for plant material, design execution, and drip-irrigation monitoring. The City of Dallas issued an informal solicitation (IFS 215260) for plant purchases with a February 3, 2026 response date, requiring new unopened stock, FOB delivery pricing, and a one-year replacement warranty. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas solicited catalog discount bids (EDACT2628) on educational activities and supplies, with estimated two-year expenditures of $40.677 billion and a July 30, 2026 deadline; this cooperative vehicle serves multiple school districts. Los Alamos County offers local, resident, and Native American business preferences under County Code Section 31-261(b) and New Mexico Statute 1978 Section 13-1-21.
