UNSPSC 10317958: Fresh cut puniceum hippeastrum

Fresh cut bloom of the puniceum variety of hippeastrum

UNSPSC 10317958 Fresh cut puniceum hippeastrum is a Commodity code that covers ornamental cut flowers and related floral materials for landscape, municipal, and institutional use. State and local governments procure under this code primarily for municipal beautification, parks and recreation landscaping, and facility decoration, though the recent-opportunities block shows a mismatch: only one of four posted opportunities aligns directly with the code's nominal scope. Los Alamos County, New Mexico solicited hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance (RFP26-55, due June 4, 2026), which involved live plant material and seasonal delivery; the City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation for plants (IFS 215260, due February 3, 2026) requiring new, unopened stock delivered FOB Dallas. Issuers range from municipalities (Los Angeles County, City of Dallas) and county parks and recreation divisions to education cooperatives and facility management agencies. The recent-opportunities block reflects scattered issuing bodies rather than concentrated repeat buyers under this specific code.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in Texas and the Southwest, with Dallas and Los Alamos County as the most recent documented solicitors. However, three of the four posted opportunities under this code bear no substantive relation to fresh cut flowers: Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (a Texas education service center) solicited educational activities and supplies under EDACT2628 (due July 30, 2026, estimated $40.677 billion over two years), and DeKalb County, Georgia posted an ITB for IT and low-voltage infrastructure at a tennis center reconstruction (2026-076-ITB, due July 13, 2026). The code shows minimal recent activity in horticultural procurement and substantial misclassification in current state and local opportunities.
