UNSPSC 10313101: Fresh cut bella dark blue delphinium

Fresh cut bloom of the bella dark blue variety of delphiniums

UNSPSC 10313101 Fresh cut bella dark blue delphinium is a Commodity code that nominally addresses a specific cut-flower variety, but recent state and local solicitations show the code being applied to a broad range of horticultural and landscaping products and services. The recent opportunities under this code encompass hanging flower basket design, installation, and multi-year maintenance; purchase of live plants for municipal use; educational activities and supplies sold through cooperative purchasing vehicles; and IT infrastructure installation. This mismatch between the code's literal name and the actual work being bought suggests the code is being used as a catch-all for miscellaneous horticulture, landscaping, and facility supplies rather than as a precise taxonomy marker. Issuing bodies include municipal parks and recreation divisions, city procurement offices, county government, and regional education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles.

Activity is concentrated in Texas and the Southwest. Los Alamos County, New Mexico posted an RFP for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance with a June 4, 2026 response date and a July 14, 2026 estimated award date; the County offers local business, resident business, and veteran resident business preferences under New Mexico Code Section 13-1-21, with evaluation weighted toward qualifications and experience (35 points) and design and maintenance solution (35 points). The City of Dallas solicited plant purchases under an informal solicitation with a February 3, 2026 response date, requiring FOB delivery, new unopened stock, and a one-year warranty on acceptance. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, posted a catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies (EDACT2628) with a July 30, 2026 response date and an estimated total expenditure of $40.677 billion over a two-year term through August 20, 2028, indicating a renewal of an existing cooperative vehicle with 136 previous awards.
