UNSPSC 10312218: Fresh cut solidago aster

Fresh cut bloom of the solidago variety of asters

UNSPSC 10312218 Fresh cut solidago aster is a Commodity code with minimal recent alignment to state and local procurement activity. The source contains four recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code, but only one—a hanging flower baskets design, installation, and maintenance contract from Los Alamos County, New Mexico—involves plant material procurement that matches the code's nominal scope. The remaining three solicitations address educational supplies and materials (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, Texas), IT and low-voltage infrastructure for tennis center reconstruction (DeKalb County, Georgia), and plants of unspecified type (City of Dallas, Texas). The Los Alamos County opportunity explicitly requires a valid nursery dealer license and specifies the contractor must supply plant material, design, maintain installations, monitor irrigation systems, and replace failed plants—work aligned with fresh cut flower supply and maintenance. The Dallas plants procurement provides minimal detail beyond FOB delivery requirements and new-condition specifications. State and local issuers using this code span education service cooperatives, county government, and municipal departments, though the recent record does not support a pattern of high or recurring activity under this specific commodity code.

Geographic activity centers on Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative covering school districts, City of Dallas) and New Mexico (Los Alamos County), with one Georgia opportunity unrelated to fresh florals. The Los Alamos County RFP26-55 for hanging flower baskets, due June 4, 2026, is the most representative current opportunity aligned to fresh cut plant material; it encompasses design, installation, and seven-year maintenance of up to 144 baskets along Central Avenue and residential streets, with evaluation weighted toward qualifications and experience (35 points) and design and maintenance solution (35 points). The City of Dallas IFS 215260, due February 3, 2026, solicits plants with minimal specification detail. The code shows little substantive recent activity specifically targeting fresh cut solidago aster or related cut-flower products from state and local buyers.
