UNSPSC 10317601 Fresh cut hot pink zinnia is a Commodity code that covers ornamental cut flowers and floral supplies for landscaping, streetscape beautification, and public grounds maintenance. State and local governments procure these materials primarily through education service centers, county parks and recreation departments, and municipal public works operations.

Purchasing vehicles range from large cooperative agreements serving multiple school districts and entities to single-jurisdiction RFPs for dedicated floral design and maintenance projects.
