UNSPSC 10302303: Fresh cut amsterdam rose

Fresh cut bloom of the amsterdam variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302303 Fresh cut Amsterdam rose is a Commodity code that covers flowering plants and cut flowers supplied to state and local government facilities, though recent activity shows the code is being applied to landscape maintenance and horticultural supply work that extends well beyond cut flowers alone. State and local governments buying under this code procure ongoing landscape and garden maintenance services, including plant care (pruning, weeding, mulching, fertilizer application), irrigation system operation and repair, seasonal plantings, and specialty services such as pollinator garden stewardship and hanging flower basket design and maintenance. Issuing bodies include county governments (Fulton County, Georgia; DeKalb County, Georgia; Los Alamos County, New Mexico), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple school districts (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). The work ranges from routine grounds upkeep to specialized environmental stewardship, with contractors often required to hold nursery licenses and demonstrate expertise in native plantings, water-efficient landscaping, and integrated pest management.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Florida, with secondary activity in New Mexico and Texas. Fulton County, Georgia issued ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM in October 2026 for quarterly maintenance of a demonstration garden's pollinator and rain gardens through December 2027 with optional renewals, requiring a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and due November 30, 2026. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida posted ITB 26246ITBMST in September 2026 for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair across school facilities (proposals due August 5, 2026, with Addendum 1 issued July 21, 2026); the solicitation encourages small business and certified minority-owned business participation and carries standard net 45-day payment terms. Los Alamos County, New Mexico released RFP26-55 in May 2026 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets with multi-year pricing through 2033 (proposals due June 4, 2026), requiring a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and offering local and resident-business preferences under New Mexico statute. A Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative catalog discount bid (EDACT2628) for educational activities and supplies posted in June 2026 with estimated expenditures of $40.677 billion over a two-year term (August 2026 through August 2028), though the connection to fresh cut flowers remains unclear and may reflect code misclassification within the cooperative's taxonomy.
