UNSPSC 10317205: Fresh cut eryngium orion thistle

Fresh cut bloom of the eryngium orion variety of thistles

UNSPSC 10317205 Fresh cut eryngium orion thistle is a Commodity code that captures ornamental cut-flower procurement by state and local agencies, though the recent opportunities block shows minimal direct activity under this specific code. The opportunities posted under or near this taxonomy include general educational and office supplies contracting, landscape and grounds maintenance services, and broader horticultural product procurement rather than eryngium thistle by species or variety. The issuing bodies in the recent record span school district cooperative purchasing vehicles (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), county parks and recreation divisions (Los Alamos County, New Mexico), and municipal procurement offices (City of Dallas). None of these opportunities explicitly solicit eryngium orion thistle by name; instead, they address educational supplies, hanging flower baskets with unspecified plant material, and general plant procurement without botanical specification.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative cooperative purchasing vehicle serving multiple school districts, and City of Dallas), Georgia (DeKalb County), and New Mexico (Los Alamos County). Representative recent opportunities include Los Alamos County's RFP 2655 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across town streets, due June 4, 2026, which requires a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and qualifies for state and local business preferences; and the City of Dallas's Informal Solicitation 215260 for general plant purchases, due February 3, 2026, with delivery to 1775 California Crossing Road, Suite 100, Dallas, requiring new plants in original packaging and a one-year warranty from acceptance. The code shows limited recent procurement activity specifically for fresh cut eryngium orion thistle, with opportunities instead focused on landscape installation and maintenance services, educational supply catalogs, and general ornamental plant procurement without botanical specification.
