UNSPSC 10302418: Fresh cut corrida rose

Fresh cut bloom of the corrida variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302418 Fresh cut corrida rose is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect procurement of fresh flowers or floral materials. Instead, the code shows activity primarily in landscape maintenance and irrigation services for municipal and county facilities, along with unrelated educational supplies contracting and IT infrastructure work. The recent solicitations reveal that state and local governments are using this code — or potentially miscoding — landscape maintenance contracts covering quarterly garden upkeep (pruning, mulching, weeding, pressure washing, irrigation system management, and pollinator habitat installation) and multi-year hanging basket design and installation programs. Issuing bodies include county departments of parks and recreation, county school systems, and county government general services departments. The work typically requires licensed landscape architects or nursery dealers on staff and mandates compliance with environmental standards such as water-efficient landscaping practices and integrated pest management.

Recent opportunities span Georgia, Florida, and New Mexico, with the most active posting concentrated in the Southeast. Fulton County, Georgia issued ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM in October 2026 for landscape maintenance of a demonstration garden through December 2027 with optional renewals, requiring a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and quarterly site walkthroughs covering pollinator and rain gardens; bids were due November 30, 2026. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida posted ITB 26246ITBMST in September 2026 for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair services across HCPS facilities, with responses originally due August 5, 2026, and encouraging participation from small business enterprises and certified minority-owned businesses. Los Alamos County, New Mexico conducted an RFP (RFP26-55) in May 2026 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets on town streets, requiring a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and offering local and resident business preferences under county code and state statute; proposals were due June 4, 2026 with an estimated award date of July 14, 2026. The code's recent activity is sparse and appears misaligned with its nominal scope of fresh cut corrida roses.
