UNSPSC 10302401: Fresh cut african dawn rose

Fresh cut bloom of the african dawn variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302401 Fresh cut African dawn rose is a Commodity code that encompasses ornamental plant material sourced for landscaping, floral arrangements, and grounds maintenance at state and local facilities. Recent opportunities show that state and local governments procure fresh flowers and decorative plants through a mix of standing contract vehicles, one-time purchases, and multi-year landscape service agreements. The issuing bodies include county parks and recreation departments, city municipal facilities management, county education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles, and special-purpose park and venue authorities. Work under this code ranges from direct commodity purchases of cut flowers and potted plants with short lead times to integrated landscape design and seasonal planting services that require nursery licensing and ongoing maintenance obligations.

Recent activity spans Texas, Georgia, and New Mexico. The City of Dallas issued an informal solicitation (IFS 215260, due February 3, 2026) for plants under strict commodity specifications requiring new, unopened goods in original packaging with FOB delivery to a single Dallas address and a one-year replacement warranty. Los Alamos County in New Mexico posted a multi-year RFP (RFP26-55, due June 4, 2026) for design, installation, and maintenance of 136–144 hanging flower baskets across town streets, requiring a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and offering local-business and resident-veteran set-aside preferences. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, solicited catalog discount bids (EDACT2628, due July 30, 2026) on educational activities and supplies with an estimated total expenditure of $40.677 billion over two years; that posting does not appear directly relevant to cut flower procurement and signals a potential code-tagging mismatch in the cooperative purchasing notice. The code shows episodic activity rather than sustained high-frequency buying, with opportunities weighted toward spring and early-summer seasonal demand for grounds beautification.
