UNSPSC 10313808: Fresh cut yellow genista

Fresh cut bloom of the yellow variety of genistas

UNSPSC 10313808 Fresh cut yellow genista is a Commodity code that encompasses flowering plants and plant materials sourced by state and local governments for landscape beautification, streetscaping, and horticultural programs. The recent opportunities tagged under this code reveal substantial divergence: three of the four solicitations involve decorative flowering plants and hanging baskets for municipal parks and streetscapes, but one catalog-discount-bid opportunity for educational activities and supplies appears unrelated to the code's nominal scope. State and local governments soliciting under this code include city park and recreation departments, county governments, regional purchasing cooperatives serving school districts, and special-purpose park authorities. Los Alamos County, the City of Dallas, and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (a Texas education service center) are the active issuing bodies in the recent record.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southwest and South, with New Mexico (Los Alamos County RFP for hanging flower baskets), Texas (City of Dallas plant purchase and Region 7 cooperative bid), and Georgia (DeKalb County, though that opportunity is mislabeled as IT infrastructure). Los Alamos County issued RFP26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across the town site, with proposals due June 4, 2026, and evaluation weighted toward qualifications and experience (35 points), design and maintenance solutions (35 points), cost proposal (20 points), and references (10 points); the contract term contemplates up to seven years with price escalation mechanisms permitted. The City of Dallas posted an informal solicitation (IFS 215260) on January 28, 2026 for the purchase of new, unopened plants with a February 3, 2026 response deadline, requiring FOB delivery to a Dallas address and offering a one-year warranty from acceptance. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative posted EDACT2628 on June 15, 2026 for catalog discount bids on educational activities and supplies, with proposals due July 30, 2026 and an estimated $40.677 billion in total expenditures over the two-year contract term from August 20, 2026 through August 20, 2028, though this opportunity's connection to fresh cut yellow genista is unclear from the available summary.
