UNSPSC 10301808: Fresh cut limona rose

Fresh cut bloom of the limona variety of rose

UNSPSC 10301808 Fresh cut limona rose is a Commodity code that captures ornamental floral supply and maintenance services in state and local procurement, though recent activity shows substantial misalignment between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited. Among five recent opportunities tagged to this code, only one directly involves fresh plant material — Los Alamos County's RFP for hanging flower baskets design, installation, and maintenance — while the remainder address landscape and irrigation maintenance, educational supplies, and IT infrastructure, none of which relate to cut flower supply. The single relevant opportunity (Los Alamos County, RFP26-55, due June 4, 2026) requires contractors to hold a New Mexico nursery dealer license and supply all plant material for up to 144 hanging baskets across town-site streets, with delivery and installation by May 15 each year, drip irrigation system assessment and monitoring, basket return by December 1, and replacement of plants failing within ten days of installation at the contractor's expense. The code shows little substantive recent activity aligned to fresh cut limona rose procurement; the categorization appears to be a data-entry artifact rather than a signal of active demand in state and local sourcing under this code.

The geographic spread of the one relevant opportunity is limited to New Mexico. Los Alamos County's hanging baskets solicitation weights qualifications and experience (35 points), design and maintenance solution (35 points), cost (20 points), and references (10 points), and offers local-business, resident-business, Native American resident-business, and veteran-business preferences under New Mexico Code Section 13-1-21. The RFP contemplates a multi-year agreement with pricing required for up to seven contract years; no specific budget is disclosed. Bidders must submit electronically via the County's Procurement Portal and acknowledge compliance with debarment, campaign contribution disclosure, and cost-escalation forms by June 4, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Mountain Time. State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code should treat it as currently inactive for fresh cut flower supply and focus instead on the landscaping and floriculture maintenance demand evident in the Georgia and Florida opportunities if pursuing ornamental horticulture services more broadly.
