UNSPSC 10311722: Fresh cut picasso alstroemeria

Fresh cut bloom of the picasso variety of alstroemerias

UNSPSC 10311722 Fresh cut picasso alstroemeria, a Commodity code, nominally describes a single ornamental flower variety, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show a mismatch between the code's specificity and actual procurement activity. The recent solicitations include hanging flower basket design and maintenance contracts, general plant purchases, and educational supply catalog discounts — none of which align with procurement of fresh cut picasso alstroemeria specifically. State and local governments soliciting under this code are school districts and education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), county parks and recreation departments (Los Alamos County), and city parks and facilities divisions (City of Dallas). The work actually being bought encompasses multi-year ornamental flower installation and maintenance, single-purchase plant inventory, and cooperative purchasing agreements for bulk educational supplies.

Recent activity spans Texas, New Mexico, and Georgia. Los Alamos County issued RFP26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across the town site, due June 4, 2026, with preference programs for local and New Mexico resident businesses and a contract term of up to seven years. The City of Dallas issued an Informal Solicitation (IFS) for plants on January 28, 2026, due February 3, 2026, with FOB delivery to Dallas and a one-year warranty requirement. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, posted a catalog discount bid solicitation (EDACT2628) on June 15, 2026, due July 30, 2026, with an estimated two-year expenditure of $40.677 billion across its school district network. The code's narrow commodity designation does not reflect the diversity or scale of actual procurement — buyers are treating it as a catch-all for flowering plant and horticulture services rather than as a specific product line.
