UNSPSC 10302326: Fresh cut dolores rose

Fresh cut bloom of the dolores variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302326 Fresh cut dolores rose (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's scope. The four opportunities posted between January and June 2026 include only one purchase genuinely related to floral products—Los Alamos County's RFP for hanging flower baskets, plant material, and maintenance services (RFP2655, due June 4, 2026)—while the remaining solicitations address educational supplies (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's EDACT2628), tennis center reconstruction (DeKalb County's ITB 2026-076), and general plants procurement (City of Dallas IFS 215260). The Los Alamos opportunity reveals demand for live nursery stock, installation labor, and ongoing horticultural maintenance within the code's intended product family, though the opportunity requires vendors to hold a New Mexico nursery dealer license and emphasizes design and quality standards over commodity-grade cut flowers. The City of Dallas plants solicitation similarly addresses live plants rather than cut florals, specifying new stock in original packaging with one-year warranties on failed goods.

Activity is geographically dispersed across Texas, New Mexico, and Georgia with no concentration in any single jurisdiction. Los Alamos County's multi-year hanging basket contract (up to seven years, proposals evaluated on a 35–35–20–10 split between qualifications, design, cost, and references) represents the largest recent opportunity in the flower-related space and favors contractors with prior horticultural experience and New Mexico residency or local preference eligibility. The code itself appears underutilized for fresh cut florals in state and local procurement; recent solicitations classed under it target live plant material, nursery services, and general landscaping supply rather than the cut-flower commodity the code describes. Pursuit activity should focus on opportunities explicitly requesting floral design services, landscape installation, or seasonal planting contracts where live plant material comprises the primary deliverable.
