UNSPSC 10318336: Fresh cut leucospermum hypophyllocarpodendron

Fresh cut blooms of the hypophyllocarpodendron variety of leucospermums

UNSPSC 10318336 Fresh cut leucospermum hypophyllocarpodendron is a Commodity code that captures specialty ornamental plant materials — specifically fresh-cut leucospermum flowers — procured by state and local governments for landscaping, public grounds beautification, and municipal display purposes. The recent opportunities tied to this code show significant mismatch between the nominal code scope and actual state and local procurement activity: the opportunities filed under this UNSPSC include educational supplies catalogs, tennis center IT infrastructure reconstruction, hanging flower basket design and maintenance contracts, and general plant purchases. Only the Los Alamos County hanging flower baskets RFP and the City of Dallas plant purchase IFS align with horticultural procurement; the educational catalog bid and DeKalb County IT infrastructure solicitation are unrelated to fresh cut flowers or plant materials. Issuing bodies in the active record span county parks and recreation divisions, city procurement offices, and regional purchasing cooperatives serving multiple school districts, though the concentration of non-plant-related opportunities suggests this code may not reliably capture ornamental flower procurement.

Geographic activity centers on Texas and New Mexico based on the recent record. Los Alamos County (New Mexico) solicited RFP26-55 for hanging flower baskets design, installation, and maintenance with proposals due June 4, 2026, requiring contractors to hold a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and supply all plant material while the County provides baskets and infrastructure; the contract term contemplates up to seven years with weighted evaluation criteria favoring qualifications (35 points), design and maintenance approach (35 points), references (10 points), and cost (20 points), and New Mexico offers local, resident, Native American, veteran, and other business preferences. The City of Dallas issued IFS 215260 for plant purchases with bids due February 3, 2026, requiring new unopened items in original packaging with FOB delivery to a single address and one-year warranty coverage. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (Texas) catalog-discount bid and DeKalb County IT infrastructure bid appear misfiled under this commodity code and offer no signal regarding fresh cut flower procurement activity.
