UNSPSC 10314105: Fresh cut light pink gladiolus

Fresh cut bloom of the light pink variety of gladioluses

UNSPSC 10314105 Fresh cut light pink gladiolus, a Commodity code, describes ornamental floral products that state and local governments procure for landscaping, beautification, and facility maintenance. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show that jurisdictions are buying fresh floral arrangements, hanging flower baskets, and general plant materials for public spaces, parks, and municipal facilities. The buying base includes county parks and recreation divisions, city public works and facilities departments, and education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles. Work solicited ranges from design and installation of seasonal floral displays (such as hanging baskets on streetlight poles) to one-time purchases of fresh plants and flowers for municipal landscaping projects, with contractors typically required to hold nursery dealer licenses and provide maintenance or warranty coverage.

Recent opportunities concentrate in Texas and the Southwest. Los Alamos County, New Mexico posted an RFP for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets on Central Avenue and neighborhood streets, with proposals due June 4, 2026, emphasizing qualifications, references, design solution, and cost at a seven-year contract term. The City of Dallas, Texas issued an Informal Solicitation (IFS) for plants on February 3, 2026, requiring new, unopened inventory delivered to a single municipal address with a one-year warranty and lowest-responsive-and-responsible evaluation. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, posted a catalog discount bid (EDACT2628) on June 15, 2026 for educational activities and supplies with a July 30, 2026 response date; while the solicitation scope is broad, it indicates ongoing state and local demand for horticultural products through cooperative purchasing channels. New Mexico state and local preference programs (local business, resident business, Native American resident, and resident veteran classifications with valid preference certificates) apply in some jurisdictions.
