UNSPSC 10316217: Fresh cut scarlet o hara peony

Fresh cut bloom of the scarlet o hara variety of peony

UNSPSC 10316217 Fresh cut scarlet o'hara peony, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The four most recent opportunities tagged under this code involve educational supplies (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative catalog discount bid), IT infrastructure reconstruction (DeKalb County tennis center), hanging flower basket design and maintenance (Los Alamos County), and generic plant purchases (City of Dallas). Only the Dallas IFS and Los Alamos RFP involve florals or ornamental plants at all, and neither specifies peony cultivars or the scarlet o'hara variety. The Dallas solicitation covers generic plants with no scope detail beyond new, unopened stock in original packaging; the Los Alamos procurement centers on hanging basket installation and maintenance services using contractor-supplied plant material, with no mention of specific species or varieties. The Region 7 and DeKalb opportunities have no connection to florals whatsoever.

State and local issuers posting under this code represent schools (Region 7 ESC serving multiple districts), counties (DeKalb in Georgia, Los Alamos in New Mexico), and cities (Dallas). Geographic activity appears scattered across Texas, Georgia, and New Mexico in the recent window, with no concentration or repeat buyers visible. The code's nominal product category—fresh cut peony flowers—does not map to the actual work recently solicited. Business development professionals evaluating vendor positioning under this code should clarify with procurement offices whether peony or cut-flower procurement is a stated need, as the recent opportunity record suggests the code may be misapplied or the market for this specific commodity through state and local channels is minimal.
