UNSPSC 10311608: Fresh cut globemaster allium

Fresh cut bloom of the globemaster variety of alliums

UNSPSC 10311608 Fresh cut globemaster allium is a Commodity code that in practice captures a much broader range of ornamental plant procurement than its name suggests. State and local governments soliciting under this code are actually buying landscape flowers, hanging baskets, plant materials, and general horticultural supplies for parks, municipal grounds, public spaces, and educational facilities. School districts and county parks departments are the primary issuing bodies, often buying through cooperative purchasing vehicles that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions or educational service centers. The scope includes design and installation services, ongoing maintenance contracts, and supply-only transactions for plant material, with vendors commonly required to hold nursery dealer licenses or equivalent horticultural credentials.

Los Alamos County in New Mexico, the City of Dallas in Texas, and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (a Texas education service center) posted the most recent relevant opportunities. Los Alamos County issued RFP26-55 for design, installation, and multi-year maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across municipal streets, with proposals due June 4, 2026 and contract award targeted for July 14, 2026; the county offers local business, New Mexico resident, and Native American veteran preferences under state statute. The City of Dallas issued an Informal Solicitation (IFS 215260) for plants with a due date of February 3, 2026, requiring new, unopened stock delivered FOB to Dallas with a one-year warranty. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, serving Texas school districts, posted a catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies (EDACT2628) due July 30, 2026, structured as a multi-year cooperative vehicle with estimated total expenditures of $40.677 billion. Recent activity shows concentrated opportunity in Texas and the Southwest, with school cooperatives and county parks departments as repeat buyers.
