UNSPSC 10314101: Fresh cut burgundy gladiolus

Fresh cut bloom of the burgundy variety of gladioluses

UNSPSC 10314101 Fresh cut burgundy gladiolus is a Commodity code that serves as a narrow product classification within ornamental floriculture procurement. State and local governments purchase fresh-cut flowers and related plant materials under this code, though recent activity shows the code captures only a portion of the broader floral and horticultural procurement activity that issuing bodies are conducting. The solicitations identified under this code reveal that state and local governments buy ornamental plants and flowers for public spaces, grounds maintenance, and seasonal decorative installations, often through cooperative purchasing vehicles or as line items within larger horticultural or facility maintenance contracts.

Activity under the code spans school districts, county governments, and municipalities, with a notable presence of cooperative purchasing mechanisms serving education service centers. Recent opportunities include Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (a Texas education service center) soliciting educational activities and supplies with catalog discount bids due July 30, 2026; Los Alamos County, New Mexico issuing an RFP for hanging flower baskets design, installation, and maintenance with proposals due June 4, 2026; and the City of Dallas posting an informal solicitation for plants with bids due February 3, 2026. Geographic activity appears concentrated in Texas and New Mexico, with broader purchasing activity likely dispersed across other states. The opportunities reveal that fresh floriculture procurement often bundles plant material with installation, maintenance, or landscape services rather than standing as a stand-alone commodity, suggesting that vendors pursuing work under this code should expect integrated horticultural service scopes and familiarity with local nursery licensing, irrigation system maintenance, and multi-year contract management.
