UNSPSC 10302616: Fresh cut high and peace rose

Fresh cut bloom of the high and peace variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302616 Fresh cut high and peace rose is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to procure cut flower arrangements and floral materials for landscaping, beautification, and public space projects. The recent solicitations tagged to this code reveal a mismatch: the opportunities posted include educational supply cooperative bidding (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative catalog discount procurement), IT infrastructure installation for a recreation center (DeKalb County tennis center reconstruction), hanging flower basket design and maintenance services (Los Alamos County RFP), and general plant purchases (City of Dallas). Of these, only the Los Alamos hanging flower basket maintenance procurement and the Dallas plant purchase are substantively related to cut flowers or flowering plant material; the other two are unrelated to the code's nominal scope. Issuing bodies across the recent record include a Texas education service center cooperative, a Georgia county recreation authority, a New Mexico county parks division, and a Texas municipal purchasing office, suggesting the code captures activity across diverse jurisdictions and use cases when properly aligned.

The code shows limited recent relevant activity. Of the four opportunities posted, only two—Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for hanging flower baskets (due June 4, 2026) and the City of Dallas's Informal Solicitation 215260 for plants (due February 3, 2026)—involve cut flowers or flowering plants. Geographic activity centers on the Southwest and South, with recent solicitations in New Mexico, Texas, and Georgia. Los Alamos County's multi-year hanging flower basket procurement required a New Mexico nursery dealer license and evaluated proposals on qualifications (35 points), references (10 points), design and maintenance (35 points), and cost (20 points), with local and state preference certifications available under New Mexico procurement law. The City of Dallas required new, unopened plants in original packaging, FOB delivery to a specific address, with a one-year warranty and online submission through its portal. The broader tagging of unrelated IT and educational supply work to this commodity code suggests practitioners should verify actual scope alignment when evaluating opportunities under this classification.
