UNSPSC 10318340: Fresh cut leucospermum pendunculatum

Fresh cut blooms of the pendunculatum variety of leucospermums

UNSPSC 10318340 Fresh cut leucospermum pendunculatum is a Commodity code that encompasses horticultural and ornamental plant material, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show no direct alignment with this specific cut-flower product. The four most recent solicitations under the code involve educational supplies and catalogs (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative), IT and low-voltage infrastructure for a sports facility (DeKalb County), hanging flower baskets with multi-year maintenance services (Los Alamos County), and general plant purchases without species specificity (City of Dallas). Of these, only the Los Alamos and Dallas opportunities relate to plants at all; the Dallas solicitation specifies only that plants be new and unopened with no substitutes, without naming species or end use, while the Los Alamos opportunity addresses living basket plants requiring nursery-dealer licensing and ongoing seasonal maintenance rather than cut flowers.

The issuing bodies span county government (DeKalb County, Los Alamos County), municipal procurement (City of Dallas), and regional education cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative serving Texas school districts), indicating fragmented demand across multiple jurisdiction types. Recent activity appears in Texas (Region 7 Cooperative, Dallas, and likely DeKalb County in Georgia metro purchasing), New Mexico (Los Alamos County), and Georgia. The code shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope; solicitations tagged to it do not consistently buy fresh cut leucospermum pendunculatum or similar cut-flower products. A vendor pursuing work under this code should verify that state and local buyers are using the code correctly for their target end-use or product category, as the recent record suggests significant taxonomy misalignment.
