UNSPSC 10317902: Fresh cut amaru hippeastrum

Fresh cut bloom of the amaru variety of hippeastrum

UNSPSC 10317902 Fresh cut amaru hippeastrum is a Commodity code covering ornamental cut flowers and related floriculture products. State and local governments procure under this code primarily through standing cooperative purchasing vehicles and informal bids for landscape beautification, parks maintenance, and grounds management. The buying pattern reflects institutional demand for fresh floral materials to support public spaces, seasonal plantings, and parks operations — a steady if modest procurement category serving municipalities, counties, and special districts with horticultural needs.

Recent activity spans Texas, Georgia, and New Mexico. Los Alamos County issued RFP26-55 in May 2026 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across town streets, with proposals due June 4, 2026 and a pre-proposal conference held May 13, 2026; the contract carries County and New Mexico resident preference designations and runs up to seven years with cost escalation mechanisms available at the County's discretion. The City of Dallas solicited bids for plant purchases under Informal Solicitation 215260 in January 2026, due February 3, 2026, with FOB delivery to a single address and a one-year warranty required. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, posted a multi-year catalog discount bid (EDACT2628) for educational activities and supplies on June 15, 2026, with an estimated total expenditure of $40.677 billion over two years — though this solicitation appears broadly educational rather than floriculture-specific and may reflect a misfiled or overbroadly tagged code assignment. The geographic footprint tilts toward Texas and Southwest jurisdictions, with activity concentrated among municipalities and regional service cooperatives rather than state departments.
