UNSPSC 10311801: Fresh cut hanging green amaranthus

Fresh cut bloom of the hanging green variety of amaranthus

UNSPSC 10311801 Fresh cut hanging green amaranthus is a Commodity code that encompasses ornamental plant material and fresh cut foliage used in municipal landscaping, public facility beautification, and horticultural supply chains serving state and local infrastructure projects. Recent opportunities tagged under this code show minimal direct procurement of amaranthus specifically; instead, the code appears to capture broader horticultural and plant-supply activities where hanging or ornamental vegetation features as an input to larger municipal beautification, park maintenance, or facilities projects. The issuing bodies include county parks and recreation departments, municipalities, and education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles. Work typically involves supplying fresh plant material meeting specified quality standards, often with installation and seasonal maintenance components, and delivery to designated municipal facilities or parks.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Texas, Georgia, and New Mexico. Representative recent opportunities show the Los Alamos County Parks, Recreation and Open Space Division posting RFP26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets for the town site, with proposals due June 4, 2026 and evaluation weighting 35 points for qualifications and experience, 35 for design and maintenance solution, 10 for references, and 20 for cost; the City of Dallas posting an Informal Solicitation (IFS 215260) on January 28, 2026 for plants with bids due February 3, 2026 and evaluation on lowest responsive and responsible vendor; and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas posting a cooperative purchasing catalog-discount-bid opportunity (EDACT2628) due July 30, 2026 covering educational activities and supplies with estimated expenditures of $40.677 billion over two years. The Los Alamos procurement applies local and New Mexico resident business preferences and requires vendors to hold a nursery dealer license. The code shows intermittent activity across multiple jurisdictions rather than concentrated, repeat procurement by a single buyer.
