UNSPSC 10302502: Fresh cut cream sweetheart rose

Fresh cut bloom of the cream sweetheart variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302502 Fresh cut cream sweetheart rose is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure cut flowers and floral arrangements for landscaping, beautification, and facilities projects. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show wide divergence from its nominal scope: a Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative catalog-discount solicitation for general educational supplies, a DeKalb County IT infrastructure bid for a tennis center reconstruction, a Los Alamos County RFP for hanging flower basket design and maintenance services, and a Dallas city purchase order for unspecified plants. Only the Los Alamos and Dallas opportunities align with horticultural procurement; the others appear to be miscoded or used as catch-all categories in cooperative purchasing frameworks. State and local buyers including school districts, counties, and municipalities do source cut flowers and related plant materials through this code, though the recent record suggests inconsistent application or tagging.

The geographic reach spans Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative serving multiple districts statewide, Dallas city), New Mexico (Los Alamos County), and Georgia (DeKalb County). Los Alamos County's hanging flower basket RFP, due June 4, 2026, required contractor licensing as a nursery dealer, multi-year pricing across up to seven years, and compliance with state and local small-business preferences; the contract contemplates up to 144 baskets across multiple streets. Dallas city's plant purchase, due February 3, 2026, specified FOB delivery to a single address with one-year warranty coverage and no substitutions. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's EDACT2628 solicitation, due July 30, 2026, estimated $40.677 billion in expenditures over two years and included 136 prior awards, suggesting renewal of a mature cooperative vehicle, though the scope is educational supplies rather than florals. Activity under this code remains sparse and mixed; the genuine horticultural opportunities are sporadic local beautification and maintenance projects rather than high-volume procurement pipelines.
