UNSPSC 10314600: Fresh cut heliconias

Fresh cut blooms of heliconias

UNSPSC 10314600 Fresh cut heliconias is a Class code that encompasses the procurement of fresh flowering plants and botanical materials for landscaping, facility beautification, and grounds maintenance by state and local governments. Recent solicitations show demand for cut flowers, flowering plant materials, and related horticultural services rather than heliconias specifically—state and local buyers are sourcing general fresh plants and floral arrangements for public spaces, parks, and municipal facilities. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span municipal governments, county parks and recreation departments, and education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles. The work includes supply of fresh plant material, design and installation of floral displays, seasonal plantings for streetscapes and public areas, and long-term maintenance contracts for hanging baskets and landscape plantings.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Texas and the Southwest. Los Alamos County, New Mexico, issued RFP26-55 in May 2026 for design, installation, and maintenance of hanging flower baskets for the town site—a multi-year contract requiring up to 144 baskets with evaluation weighted toward qualifications (35 points), design and maintenance solutions (35 points), references (10 points), and cost (20 points), with proposals due June 4, 2026 and a required New Mexico nursery dealer license. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation (IFS 215260) in January 2026 for the purchase of plants with a February 3, 2026 deadline, requiring new unopened materials in original packaging with FOB delivery and thirty-day price firmness. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas advertised EDACT2628 on June 15, 2026—a cooperative purchasing vehicle catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies with a July 30, 2026 deadline and an estimated contract value of $40.677 billion over two years, serving multiple school districts. Los Alamos County offers local and resident business preferences under New Mexico statute; Dallas requires conflict-of-interest disclosure and non-discrimination compliance on larger contracts.
