UNSPSC 10314616: Fresh cut shogun heliconia

Fresh cut bloom of the shogun variety of heliconias

UNSPSC 10314616 Fresh cut shogun heliconia is a Commodity code. State and local governments solicit under this code for horticultural and landscape maintenance services, though the recent opportunities posted show minimal direct activity tied to the code's specific fresh-cut-flower scope. The most recent opportunities tagged to this code involve broader educational supplies procurement, tennis center reconstruction with IT infrastructure, hanging flower basket design and maintenance services, and general plant purchases — a mix indicating either occasional misclassification or that state and local buyers are accessing plant materials through broader commodity or cooperative purchasing vehicles rather than seeking fresh cut shogun heliconia as a discrete line item. The issuing bodies include education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), counties (DeKalb County, Georgia and Los Alamos County, New Mexico), and cities (City of Dallas, Texas), with activity spanning school districts and municipal parks and recreation divisions.

Geographic spread includes Texas, Georgia, and New Mexico based on recent postings. The most directly relevant recent opportunity is Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance across the town site, due June 4, 2026, which requires proposers to hold a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and supply all plant material; the County offers local, New Mexico resident, and Native American resident business preferences under specified state and local codes. The City of Dallas issued an informal solicitation (IFS 215260) for plant purchases due February 3, 2026, with FOB delivery to a Dallas location and a requirement for new, unopened stock in original packaging with one-year warranty coverage. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas posted EDACT2628, a catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies with a two-year contract term through August 20, 2028, and an estimated $40.677 billion in total expenditures across the cooperative's network, due July 30, 2026. The code shows limited activity specifically targeting fresh cut shogun heliconia; most plant-related procurement occurs through broader landscape maintenance, general plant purchase, or cooperative purchasing agreements.
