UNSPSC 10301720: Fresh cut ilios rose

Fresh cut bloom of the ilios variety of rose

UNSPSC 10301720 Fresh cut ilios rose is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure ornamental flowering plants and related horticultural supplies for public facilities, parks, and landscaping programs. Recent solicitations under this code show governments buying hanging flower baskets with live plant material, cut flowers for arrangement and display, and associated nursery and installation services. The issuing bodies are diverse — county parks and recreation divisions, city public works departments, and regional education cooperatives — each tailoring procurement to their specific facility or jurisdictional needs. Scope typically includes not only the plant material itself but also installation, seasonal maintenance, replacement guarantees, and coordination with in-house horticultural or landscape management staff.

Recent activity appears concentrated in the Southwest and South, with Los Alamos County, New Mexico issuing an RFP for hanging flower basket design, installation, and multi-year maintenance (proposals due June 4, 2026), and the City of Dallas posting an informal solicitation for plants to be delivered to a specific address (due February 3, 2026). A broader education cooperative activity is visible through Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's catalog discount bid solicitation (EDACT2628, due July 30, 2026), which encompasses educational supplies across a multi-district network; however, that opportunity appears misaligned with the fresh-cut-flower commodity code and likely represents miscategorization by the issuing body. The Los Alamos and Dallas opportunities are the strongest recent signals for horticultural procurement under this code, with Los Alamos offering New Mexico resident and local business preferences and emphasizing nursery dealer licensing as a qualification requirement.
