UNSPSC 10317003: Fresh cut sunbeam sunflower

Fresh cut bloom of the sunbeam variety of sunflowers

UNSPSC 10317003 Fresh cut sunbeam sunflower, a Commodity code, reflects state and local government procurement of fresh-cut and potted flowering plants for landscaping, civic beautification, and facility decoration. Recent solicitations show governments purchasing ornamental plants — hanging flower baskets, fresh cut flowers, and potted plants — for parks, street medians, public buildings, and civic spaces. Issuing bodies span city parks and recreation departments, county governments, and education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles. Los Alamos County Parks, Recreation and Open Space Division and the City of Dallas Parks & Recreation have both posted opportunities for fresh-cut and potted flowering plants in 2026, indicating recurring demand among municipal departments responsible for landscape maintenance and public space aesthetic.

Activity under the code is concentrated in Texas and New Mexico based on recent postings. Los Alamos County issued RFP2655 on May 7, 2026 (due June 4, 2026) for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets for the town site, requiring contractors to hold a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and supply all plant material; the County applies local and resident business preferences under New Mexico Code. The City of Dallas posted Informal Solicitation 215260 on January 28, 2026 (due February 3, 2026) for purchase of plants requiring new, unopened stock in original packaging with FOB delivery to 1775 California Crossing Road, Suite 100, Dallas, Texas 75220. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, solicited catalog discount bids on educational activities and supplies under EDACT2628 (due July 30, 2026) with estimated two-year expenditures of $40.677 billion across its network of school districts. The code shows moderate activity but is not uniformly tagged — one recent posting labeled under this code (DeKalb County's tennis center reconstruction) concerns IT infrastructure and is plainly unrelated to flowering plants, suggesting occasional miscoding of opportunities in state and local procurement systems.
