UNSPSC 10302017: Fresh cut long arifa rose

Fresh cut bloom of the long arifa variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302017 Fresh cut long arifa rose is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure cut flowers and floral materials for landscaping, decorative, and horticultural purposes. Recent opportunities under this code show procurement activity focused on live plant materials, hanging flower baskets, educational supplies, and landscaping components rather than specifically fresh cut roses. The issuing bodies include county governments, city procurement offices, and education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles. Los Alamos County, New Mexico; the City of Dallas, Texas; and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (a Texas education service center) have posted recent solicitations tagged to this code or closely related commodity codes.

Geographic activity centers on Texas and the Southwest, with recent opportunities in Dallas and Los Alamos County, New Mexico, alongside cooperative purchasing activity in the Texas education service sector. Representative recent opportunities include Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across town streets (proposals due June 4, 2026), which requires contractors to hold valid New Mexico nursery dealer licenses and includes local and resident vendor preferences; the City of Dallas's Informal Solicitation 215260 for purchase of new plants delivered FOB to a Dallas facility (bids due February 3, 2026), requiring FOB pricing and firm pricing for thirty days with a one-year warranty; and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's EDACT2628 cooperative purchasing vehicle for educational activities and supplies, a renewal with 136 previous awards and an estimated total expenditure of $40.677 billion over two years (proposals due July 30, 2026). The code shows limited recent activity specifically matching fresh cut rose procurement; most tagged opportunities involve potted plants, landscaping materials, and educational supplies, suggesting a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and state and local buying patterns under this designation.
