UNSPSC 10302148: Fresh cut lobita rose

Fresh cut bloom of the lobita variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302148 Fresh cut lobita rose is a Commodity code that spans ornamental cut flowers and flowering plants for landscape, institutional, and decorative procurement by state and local governments. The recent solicitations tagged to this code show minimal alignment with the nominal scope—most represent broader educational supplies (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's catalog bid), IT infrastructure installation (DeKalb County's tennis center reconstruction), general plant procurement (City of Dallas), and horticultural services (Los Alamos County's hanging basket design and maintenance). State and local issuing bodies buying under or near this code include education service centers running multi-entity cooperative purchasing vehicles, county parks and recreation divisions, city procurement bureaus, and regional purchasing cooperatives. The work spans catalog-based discounts on educational supplies, landscape plant installation and maintenance contracts, and transactional plant purchases for municipal use.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, City of Dallas) and the Southwest (Los Alamos County, New Mexico; DeKalb County, Georgia). Representative recent solicitations include Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's EDACT2628 catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies with proposals due July 30, 2026, covering an estimated $40.677 billion over two years; Los Alamos County's RFP 26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets with proposals due June 4, 2026 and an estimated award date of July 14, 2026, offered under New Mexico local and resident business preferences; and the City of Dallas's informal solicitation (IFS) 215260 for plant purchase with bids due February 3, 2026, requiring new, unopened items delivered FOB to a Dallas facility. The mismatch between the code's nominal name and actual solicitation scope suggests this code may be misapplied in recent postings or encompasses a broader family of ornamental plant and horticultural services than the specific rose variety designation implies.
