UNSPSC 10311508: Fresh cut orange anthurium

Fresh cut bloom of the orange variety of anthuriums

UNSPSC 10311508 Fresh cut orange anthurium, a Commodity code, represents ornamental flowering plants and foliage that state and local governments procure for parks, streetscapes, civic facilities, and public landscaping programs. The recent solicitations under this code show a broader pattern of jurisdictions sourcing cut flowers, hanging flower baskets with seasonal plantings, and decorative flora for public spaces rather than the specific anthurium variety alone. Issuing bodies include county parks and recreation divisions, municipal procurement offices, and education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles. Work involves supplying live plant material meeting specified design and quality standards, with contractors often responsible for installation, seasonal maintenance, irrigation management, and plant replacement guarantees. The Los Alamos County RFP26-55 exemplifies the scope: contractors must hold a valid nursery dealer license, supply plant material for up to 144 hanging baskets across public streets, maintain drip irrigation systems, and replace failed plants within ten days of installation at no cost to the jurisdiction. Dallas and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative opportunities confirm that jurisdictions also source individual plants and bulk plant supplies for parks, facilities, and general municipal use, with vendors required to deliver new, unopened stock and provide warranty coverage on defective or failed material.

Geographic activity centers in Texas and the Southwest, with recent solicitations from Los Alamos County (New Mexico), Dallas (Texas), and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative serving Texas school districts. Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for hanging flower baskets multi-year is the most representative current opportunity, seeking proposals by June 4, 2026 for seven-year contract terms with weighted evaluation on qualifications, references, design solution, and cost, subject to local and resident business preferences under New Mexico statute. The City of Dallas issued an Informal Solicitation (IFS) 215260 for plant purchase in late January 2026 with bids due February 3, 2026, requiring FOB delivery to a single Dallas address with one-year post-acceptance warranty. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative posted EDACT2628 on June 15, 2026 seeking catalog discount bids on educational activities and supplies with proposals due July 30, 2026, estimated at $40.677 billion over two years; while broader in scope than cut flowers alone, it demonstrates recurring cooperative purchasing demand for plant and flower supplies among school entities.
