UNSPSC 10302344: Fresh cut kachita rose

Fresh cut bloom of the kachita variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302344 Fresh cut kachita rose is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of flowering plants and related horticultural products for public spaces, landscaping, and institutional use. Recent state and local opportunities under this code span catalog purchases of educational and general supplies where plant materials appear as line items, ongoing maintenance contracts for public plantings, and direct procurement of plants for municipal and county facilities. Issuing bodies include education service centers and cooperatives serving school districts (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), county parks and recreation divisions (Los Alamos County), municipal procurement offices (City of Dallas), and county departments managing public facilities (DeKalb County). The work ranges from one-time plant purchases with strict quality requirements (new, unopened, original packaging) to multi-year design, installation, and maintenance agreements for planted installations on public streets and in parks.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and New Mexico. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, posted EDACT2628 on June 15, 2026, an invitation for catalog discount bids on educational activities and supplies due July 30, 2026, with estimated total expenditures of $40.677 billion over two years—though this code's relevance to that broad cooperative vehicle is unclear. The City of Dallas issued IFS 215260 on January 28, 2026, for direct purchase of plants due February 3, 2026, requiring FOB delivery to a specified Dallas address with firm pricing for thirty days and a one-year warranty. Los Alamos County, New Mexico, conducted RFP26-55 posted May 7, 2026, for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets on town streets, due June 4, 2026, requiring bidders to hold a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and offering local, resident, and veteran business preferences; the contract term contemplates up to seven years with pricing submitted for each year. DeKalb County, Georgia, issued ITB 2026-076 on June 9, 2026, for reconstruction of the DeKalb Tennis Center—though the posted scope focuses on IT and low-voltage infrastructure rather than fresh cut flowers, suggesting a coding mismatch in that record.
