UNSPSC 10302301: Fresh cut aerobic rose

Fresh cut bloom of the aerobic variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302301 Fresh cut aerobic rose is a Commodity code that covers flowering plant material and related horticultural supply procurement, though recent state and local activity under this code shows minimal direct fresh-flower purchasing and instead reflects broader landscape maintenance and installation services. The solicitations tagged to this code span maintenance of established ornamental plantings (perennials, shrubs, native grasses, and flowering gardens), irrigation system operation and repair, and multi-year design and installation of decorative flowering baskets. Issuing bodies include county governments (Fulton County and DeKalb County, Georgia; Los Alamos County, New Mexico; Hillsborough County, Florida), a school district (Hillsborough County Public Schools), and a regional education service center purchasing cooperative (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). Work requirements often demand Georgia licensing for landscape architects, compliance with state security and immigration verification statutes, submission of subcontractor and material-supplier lists subject to buyer approval, and adherence to integrated pest management and water-efficiency standards.

Recent opportunities span the Southeast and Southwest. Fulton County's South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden ITB (26ITB1652296A-KM), due November 30, 2026, solicits quarterly landscape maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens including selective pruning, mulching, pressure washing, and irrigation system management across a 0.95-acre site with a contract term through December 31, 2027 plus two optional one-year renewals; the county notes 34.71% availability of certified minority-owned businesses and 11.45% female-owned business enterprises for this category. Hillsborough County Public Schools' landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair ITB (26246ITBMST) was due August 5, 2026 and encompasses labor, materials, supervision, and equipment across district facilities with addendum revisions issued in July 2026. Los Alamos County's hanging flower baskets RFP (RFP2655), due June 4, 2026, requires design, installation, and seasonal maintenance of up to 144 baskets on town site streets; proposers must hold a New Mexico nursery dealer license and are evaluated on qualifications, references, design and maintenance plan, and cost, with the county offering local and resident-business preferences under New Mexico procurement preference statutes. A Texas education service center cooperative (EDACT2628, due July 30, 2026) solicited educational activities and supplies catalog discounts with an estimated two-year expenditure of $40.677 billion, though this opportunity appears unrelated to fresh-flower procurement or horticultural services.
