UNSPSC 10302707: Fresh cut candle light rose

Fresh cut bloom of the candle light variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302707 Fresh cut candle light rose is a Commodity code that captures ornamental floral products for landscape, event, and facility beautification purposes, though recent state and local activity shows minimal direct relevance to the code's nominal scope. State and local governments procuring under this code area source fresh-cut flowers, potted plants, hanging baskets, and related horticultural materials for public spaces, parks, and municipal facilities. Issuing bodies include counties, cities, education cooperatives, and special-purpose districts. Recent solicitations show broader horticultural procurement activity: Los Alamos County (New Mexico) is conducting an RFP for design, installation, and maintenance of hanging flower baskets for town-site streetscapes, the City of Dallas is seeking plant purchases for municipal facilities, and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (Texas education service center) is bidding out educational and general supplies through a cooperative vehicle. The code's activity sits within a broader state and local landscape maintenance and facility beautification market rather than a narrowly focused fresh-cut-rose segment.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas and the Southwest, with recent solicitations from Texas (Dallas, Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative serving multiple school districts), New Mexico (Los Alamos County), and Georgia (DeKalb County). The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative ITB (EDACT2628, due July 30, 2026) solicits catalog discount bids on educational activities and supplies with estimated total expenditures of $40.677 billion over a two-year term and 136 previous awards, indicating a renewal of an existing cooperative purchasing agreement. Los Alamos County's RFP2655 (due June 4, 2026) seeks hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance for up to 144 baskets, requiring a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and offering local and resident-business preferences under New Mexico Code Section 31-261(b). The City of Dallas IFS 215260 (due February 3, 2026) sought plant purchases FOB delivery to a specified municipal address with a one-year warranty from acceptance. Note that one recent citation (DeKalb County's IT infrastructure reconstruction) appears mislabeled under this code and does not reflect horticultural procurement activity.
