UNSPSC 10302728: Fresh cut gelosia or yellow flame rose

Fresh cut bloom of the gelosia or yellow flame variety of rose

UNSPSC 10302728 Fresh cut gelosia or yellow flame rose is a Commodity code that nominally designates cut flower procurement; however, the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show minimal direct relevance to the commodity itself. The code appears in state and local solicitations for landscape maintenance and irrigation services (Fulton County, Georgia's South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden ITB; Hillsborough County Public Schools' landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair ITB), hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance (Los Alamos County RFP), and educational supplies cooperative purchasing (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative catalog discount bid). Only the Los Alamos hanging basket RFP directly involves horticultural work and seasonal plant material; the others frame the code alongside broader landscape construction and maintenance scope. The issuing bodies mix county government (Fulton County, DeKalb County, Los Alamos County), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools), and education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). The DeKalb County Tennis Center reconstruction ITB, also tagged under this code, concerns IT and Low Voltage Infrastructure and is plainly unrelated to floriculture.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia (Fulton County, DeKalb County), Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), New Mexico (Los Alamos County), and Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative). Representative opportunities include Fulton County's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden landscape maintenance (bids due November 30, 2026, with a pre-bid conference November 4 and site visit recommended November 10), Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for hanging flower baskets design, installation, and maintenance across the town site (proposals due June 4, 2026, with estimated award July 14, 2026, requiring a New Mexico nursery dealer license and weighted evaluation on qualifications, references, design solution, and cost), and Hillsborough County Public Schools' ITB 26246ITBMST for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair (proposals due August 5, 2026, with encouragement for small business and minority-owned business participation). The code shows limited concrete activity directly tied to cut rose procurement; pursuit should focus on the horticultural maintenance and design work (Los Alamos, Fulton County) rather than the broader landscape service or unrelated infrastructure categories also tagged here.
