UNSPSC 10312009: Fresh cut purple anemone

Fresh cut bloom of the purple variety of anemone

UNSPSC 10312009 Fresh cut purple anemone is a Commodity code representing ornamental cut flowers and floral materials purchased by state and local government entities for landscaping, decorative, and horticultural purposes. The recent solicitations tagged under this code show a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity. Of the four opportunities listed, only one—Los Alamos County's RFP for hanging flower baskets—involves floral materials directly; the others cover educational supplies (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), IT infrastructure reconstruction (DeKalb County, Georgia), and general plant purchases (City of Dallas). The hanging flower baskets procurement is the most representative: Los Alamos County seeks design, installation, and multi-year maintenance of up to 144 hanging baskets across town streets, with the contractor required to hold a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license, supply all plant material to specified designs, and manage drip irrigation systems.

Activity under this code is geographically scattered and infrequent. The three relevant opportunities span Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative educational supplies bid posted June 15, 2026 with proposals due July 30, 2026, and City of Dallas plants purchase posted January 28, 2026 with bids due February 3, 2026), New Mexico (Los Alamos County hanging flower baskets RFP posted May 7, 2026 with proposals due June 4, 2026), and Georgia (DeKalb County). The code shows sparse recent procurement activity focused on horticulture and floral materials; the educational supplies and IT infrastructure solicitations appear to be miscoded under this commodity classification and signal limited relevance for vendors specializing in cut flowers or fresh floral products.
