UNSPSC 10312204: Fresh cut japanese hot pink aster

Fresh cut bloom of the japanese hot pink variety of asters

UNSPSC 10312204 Fresh cut Japanese hot pink aster is a Commodity code that nominally identifies a single cut-flower product, but recent state and local solicitations do not reflect purchasing activity under this specific item code. The most recent opportunities tagged to this code include an educational supplies catalog discount bid from Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas, an IT and low-voltage infrastructure rebuild at a recreation facility in DeKalb County, Georgia, and general plant procurement from the City of Dallas. Only one opportunity—Los Alamos County's hanging flower baskets RFP—involves horticultural products within the code's nominal scope; that solicitation calls for design, installation, and multi-year maintenance of ornamental plantings on public streets, requiring a valid nursery dealer license and responsibility for live-plant replacement under warranty. The mismatch between the code's specific naming of a single cut-flower variety and the diversity of products and services in the tagged opportunities suggests this code receives little focused recent activity aligned to fresh cut Japanese hot pink asters specifically.

Los Alamos County's hanging flower baskets RFP (RFP26-55, due June 4, 2026) represents the sole horticultural opportunity in the recent record. That solicitation covers up to 144 baskets distributed across Central Avenue and residential streets, with evaluation weighted toward qualifications and experience (35 points), design and maintenance approach (35 points), references (10 points), and cost (20 points). Los Alamos County offers local and resident business preferences under New Mexico statute, requiring valid preference certificates and current county business licenses. Geographic activity is sparse and geographically dispersed—Texas, Georgia, and New Mexico appear in the recent record—with no indication of concentrated purchasing patterns under this code. The code shows insufficient recent state and local activity to support a focused business development strategy around fresh cut Japanese hot pink asters.
