UNSPSC 10314901: Fresh cut black bearded iris

Fresh cut bloom of the black bearded variety of irises

UNSPSC 10314901 Fresh cut black bearded iris is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure plant material and horticultural supplies for landscaping, park beautification, and maintenance programs. Recent solicitations show that the code captures a broader spectrum of floral and plant procurement than the iris-specific title suggests: Los Alamos County is soliciting design, installation, and multi-year maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets for streetscaping; the City of Dallas is purchasing general plant stock for delivery to municipal facilities; and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, is offering catalog discounts on educational activities and supplies to member school districts and cooperating entities. Issuing bodies include county parks and recreation divisions, municipal purchasing offices, and regional education cooperatives that aggregate demand across school districts. The work spans supply of live plant material, design and installation of landscape features, ongoing horticultural maintenance, and participation in cooperative purchasing vehicles that bundle plant procurement with broader educational or municipal goods and services.
