UNSPSC 10313207: Fresh cut red dianthus

Fresh cut bloom of the red variety of dianthuses

UNSPSC 10313207 Fresh cut red dianthus is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of ornamental flowering plants for landscaping, floral displays, and grounds maintenance. Recent solicitations show that state and local governments buy cut flowers and living plants primarily for civic beautification, park amenities, and facility grounds upkeep rather than for resale or retail purposes. The issuing bodies span education service centers, county governments, and municipal parks and recreation divisions. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, is a significant repeat buyer under cooperative purchasing vehicles that serve multiple school districts; Los Alamos County in New Mexico and the City of Dallas in Texas also appear as active solicitors. The work ranges from one-time plant purchases for specific projects to multi-year design, installation, and maintenance contracts for hanging flower baskets and grounds beautification.

Recent opportunities cluster in the Southwest and South. Los Alamos County issued RFP2655 on May 7, 2026 (proposals due June 4, 2026) for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across Central Avenue and surrounding streets, requiring the contractor to hold a valid nursery dealer license and manage plant material, irrigation assessment, and seasonal replacement; the County applies local, resident, and native American business preferences. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation (IFS 215260) on January 28, 2026 (due February 3, 2026) for purchase of plants requiring new, unopened inventory shipped FOB to a Dallas facility with a one-year warranty. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative solicited catalog discount bids (EDACT2628, due July 30, 2026) for educational activities and supplies through a cooperative vehicle serving multiple school districts with an estimated two-year expenditure of $40.677 billion across the member network, though the fresh-cut dianthus code appears incidental to the broader educational supplies scope.
