UNSPSC 10317940: Fresh cut leonardii hippeastrum

Fresh cut bloom of the leonardii variety of hippeastrum

UNSPSC 10317940 Fresh cut leonardii hippeastrum is a Commodity code that covers fresh-cut flowering plants, particularly hippeastrum (amaryllis) blooms, sourced for landscaping, decorative, and horticultural applications by state and local governments. Recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show minimal alignment with its nominal scope; instead, the opportunities reflect broader procurement of plants, plant materials, and horticultural services including hanging basket design and maintenance, general plant purchases for municipal use, and educational supplies. The issuing bodies include education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), counties (Los Alamos County, New Mexico; DeKalb County, Georgia), and cities (Dallas, Texas). The Texas education cooperative dominates recent activity as a repeat buyer through a large multi-year catalog discount agreement, while Los Alamos County and Dallas represent discrete municipal plant and landscaping needs.

The code shows recent activity primarily in Texas, Georgia, and New Mexico. Representative opportunities include Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's EDACT2628 catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies (due July 30, 2026) spanning a two-year term with estimated expenditures of $40.677 billion; Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets on town-site streets (due June 4, 2026), which requires vendors to hold a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and offers local and Native American business preferences under New Mexico statute; and the City of Dallas's informal solicitation for plant purchases (due February 3, 2026) requiring new, unopened items delivered FOB to a municipal address. The mismatch between the code's specific commodity name and the generalist nature of recent solicitations suggests limited procurement activity narrowly focused on fresh-cut leonardii hippeastrum at the state and local level.
