UNSPSC 10311517: Fresh cut tulip red anthurium

Fresh cut bloom of the tulip red variety of anthuriums

UNSPSC 10311517 Fresh cut tulip red anthurium is a Commodity code encompassing ornamental cut flowers and potted plants supplied to state and local government entities for landscaping, beautification, and facility decoration. Recent solicitations show state and local governments purchasing fresh flowers and plant materials through both formal procurement and cooperative purchasing vehicles, though the code's recent activity does not align neatly with the specific flower variety named. Issuing bodies include county parks and recreation departments, city horticulture and facilities divisions, and regional education service centers procuring through cooperative purchasing agreements. Los Alamos County in New Mexico and the City of Dallas in Texas have posted active solicitations for plant materials and landscape services; Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas, an education service center, solicited catalog discount bids on educational activities and supplies including plants. The work typically encompasses supply of new, unopened plant material meeting specified quality standards, often paired with installation and ongoing maintenance for hanging baskets and streetscape beautification projects.

The code shows recent activity concentrated in Texas and New Mexico. Los Alamos County issued RFP 26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets for town-site streetscapes, with responses due June 4, 2026; the contract term extends up to seven years and requires the contractor to hold a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation (IFS) 215260 for purchase of plants with delivery to 1775 California Crossing Road, Suite 100, with bids due February 3, 2026, requiring all plants to be new, unopened, and in original packaging with no substitutes accepted. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative issued EDACT2628, a catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies, with proposals due July 30, 2026, under a two-year cooperative purchasing vehicle serving multiple school districts with an estimated total expenditure of $40.677 billion over the contract term from August 20, 2026 through August 20, 2028. Activity is sporadic and driven by municipal beautification projects and school district supply needs rather than by sustained demand from a single jurisdiction type.
