UNSPSC 10312003: Fresh cut blue anemone

Fresh cut bloom of the blue variety of anemone

UNSPSC 10312003 Fresh cut blue anemone is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The four recent opportunities posted under this code span educational supplies catalogs, IT infrastructure reconstruction, municipal landscaping services, and general plant procurement—none of which involve fresh cut flowers or floristry products. The mismatch between the code designation and the actual solicitations suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or that the code itself captures a product category (fresh flowers) that state and local governments purchase infrequently or through channels not reflected in these notices.

Of the four opportunities, only one—Los Alamos County's RFP for hanging flower baskets and maintenance (RFP2655, due June 4, 2026)—involves horticulture at all, but it specifies live plant material and ongoing maintenance services rather than cut flowers. The City of Dallas purchase of plants (Informal Solicitation 215260, due February 3, 2026) is similarly focused on live specimens in original packaging. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative catalog discount bid (EDACT2628, due July 30, 2026) and DeKalb County's tennis center reconstruction ITB (due July 13, 2026) bear no relation to floristry. Activity concentrates in Texas (Dallas, Region 7) and New Mexico (Los Alamos), with no geographic pattern suggesting sustained demand for fresh cut blue anemones specifically. Pursuit of this code requires clarification whether issuing bodies are actually sourcing cut flowers under UNSPSC 10312003 or whether the code misrepresents the underlying procurement activity.
