UNSPSC 10316407: Fresh cut orange ranunculus

Fresh cut bloom of the orange variety of ranunculuses

UNSPSC 10316407 Fresh cut orange ranunculus is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single horticultural product line, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show minimal alignment with fresh cut flowers and instead span broad educational supplies, facility reconstruction, and general plant procurement. The code sees solicitation activity from school districts via cooperative purchasing vehicles, county parks and recreation departments, and municipal procurement offices. Work actually being bought includes hanging flower baskets with multi-year maintenance contracts, general plant material and landscaping services, and educational supplies catalogs — a scope substantially broader than the code's nominal designation suggests.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Texas and the Southwest. Los Alamos County, New Mexico conducted an RFP for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance for town-site streetscapes through June 4, 2026, requiring contractors to hold valid nursery dealer licenses and proposing pricing across seven potential contract years with evaluation weighted toward qualifications (35 points), design and maintenance solutions (35 points), references (10 points), and cost (20 points). The City of Dallas issued an Informal Solicitation for plants (IFS 215260, due February 3, 2026) requiring new, unopened goods FOB delivery to a specified Dallas address with a one-year warranty. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas is soliciting catalog discount bids for educational activities and supplies (EDACT2628, due July 30, 2026) through a cooperative purchasing vehicle serving multiple school districts, with an estimated $40.677 billion over two years. The code's tagging appears imprecise; recent opportunities reflect general horticultural and landscape maintenance procurement rather than fresh cut flowers specifically.
