UNSPSC 10312208 Fresh cut Japanese pink aster is a Commodity code that encompasses the procurement of ornamental cut flowers and floral materials by state and local governments for landscaping, beautification, and horticultural projects. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show a mix of direct plant purchases and broader floral supply agreements. Issuing bodies include county governments, municipalities, and education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation for plants with a due date of February 3, 2026, requiring new, unopened items in original packaging shipped FOB to a Dallas facility; Los Alamos County issued RFP26-55 for the design, installation, and maintenance of hanging flower baskets containing live plants for streetscape beautification, with proposals due June 4, 2026 and a seven-year contract term; and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, solicited catalog discount bids on educational activities and supplies (EDACT2628) encompassing a broader range of products with an estimated total expenditure of $40.677 billion over two years through August 20, 2028, due July 30, 2026.

The Dallas plant purchase required FOB delivery pricing with a one-year warranty; the Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative vehicle serves multiple school districts across its network with a renewal structure indicated by 136 previous awards.
