UNSPSC 10301917: Fresh cut geraldine rose

Fresh cut bloom of the geraldine variety of rose

UNSPSC 10301917 Fresh cut geraldine rose is a Commodity code that encompasses floral procurement by state and local governments, though recent solicitation activity shows substantial mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual purchasing behavior. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve landscape maintenance services, educational supplies, IT infrastructure, and hanging flower basket design and installation—work that spans landscape architecture, horticulture, and facilities management but does not center on fresh cut rose procurement. State and local governments appear to use this code when acquiring flowering plants and related horticultural services as components of broader landscape and grounds-maintenance projects rather than as a direct purchase of cut flowers.

Issuing bodies include county parks and recreation divisions, county government facilities departments, school districts, and regional purchasing cooperatives. Geographic activity documented in recent solicitations spans Georgia (Fulton County, DeKalb County), Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), New Mexico (Los Alamos County), and Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative). Representative recent opportunities include Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for landscape maintenance of the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden, with bids due November 30, 2026, covering quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens with selective pruning, weeding, mulching, pressure washing, seasonal plant color changes, and irrigation management; Los Alamos County, New Mexico's RFP26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across town-site streets, with proposals due June 4, 2026 and evaluation weighted toward qualifications and experience (35 points), design and maintenance solution (35 points), cost (20 points), and references (10 points); and Hillsborough County Public Schools' ITB 26246ITBMST for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair across school facilities, with bids originally due August 5, 2026 and addendum 1 issued July 21, 2026. The code shows limited direct sourcing activity for cut flowers; buyers pursuing this code should assess whether their product or service aligns with landscape maintenance contracts, horticultural supplies, or ongoing grounds-care services rather than wholesale cut-flower distribution.
