UNSPSC 10302626: Fresh cut proud rose

Fresh cut bloom of the proud variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302626 Fresh cut proud rose is a Commodity code that encompasses ornamental plant procurement and horticultural services for state and local government facilities, though recent activity shows the code is being applied inconsistently to landscape maintenance, irrigation work, and educational supplies rather than specifically to fresh-cut roses. The actual work being solicited under this code spans quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens, design and installation of hanging flower baskets with ongoing seasonal care and plant replacement, and broader landscape and irrigation installation and repair services across municipal and school properties. Issuing bodies include county governments (Fulton County, Georgia; DeKalb County, Georgia; Los Alamos County, New Mexico), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida), and regional purchasing cooperatives serving education networks (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). The work requires contractors to hold nursery licenses or landscape architecture credentials, manage specialized plantings for environmental goals such as pollinator habitat and stormwater management, operate irrigation systems, and in some cases source plant material quarterly for seasonal color and maintenance.

Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia and the broader Southeast. Fulton County, Georgia posted an ITB on October 16, 2026 (due November 30, 2026) for landscape maintenance services at the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden, requiring a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and quarterly upkeep of pollinator and rain gardens through December 2027 with optional one-year renewals. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida issued an ITB (26246ITBMST) on September 28, 2026 for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair across district facilities with a due date of August 5, 2026 and preferential consideration for small business enterprises and certified minority-owned businesses. Los Alamos County, New Mexico solicited proposals for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets on Central Avenue and residential streets via RFP 26-55 (due June 4, 2026, award estimated July 14, 2026), requiring a New Mexico nursery dealer license and offering local and veteran business preferences under New Mexico statute. The code also appears in a Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative education services catalog discount bid (EDACT2628, due July 30, 2026, estimated two-year expenditures $40.677 billion), though the connection to fresh-cut roses is unclear from the cooperative's broader educational supplies scope.
