UNSPSC 10322902: Fresh cut yellow calendula

Fresh cut bloom of yellow variety of calendulas

UNSPSC 10322902 Fresh cut yellow calendula, a Commodity code, covers ornamental flowering plants and cut flowers that state and local governments procure for landscaping, public space beautification, and horticultural projects. Recent solicitations show that governments buy fresh flowers and flowering plants for installation and seasonal maintenance in public parks, streetscapes, and municipal grounds, often bundling them with planting, design, and maintenance services. The issuing-body mix includes county park departments (Los Alamos County Parks, Recreation and Open Space Division), city public works and facilities divisions (City of Dallas), and education service centers coordinating purchases across school districts (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). Scope ranges from direct purchase of plants in original packaging with FOB freight included, to multi-year landscape contracts requiring licensed nurseries to supply, design, install, and maintain flowering displays across public infrastructure.

Geographic activity centers on Texas and the Southwest. Los Alamos County, New Mexico issued an RFP for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance across 144 baskets on city streets, due June 4, 2026, weighted heavily on qualifications (35 points), design solution (35 points), references (10 points), and cost (20 points), with preference for local and New Mexico resident businesses. The City of Dallas released an informal solicitation for plant purchases (IFS 215260) due February 3, 2026, requiring FOB delivery to a single address with one-year post-acceptance warranty and no substitutes accepted. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas posted a catalog discount bid (EDACT2628) due July 30, 2026 for educational activities and supplies across a two-year cooperative purchasing vehicle serving multiple school districts. The Texas Cooperative's estimated expenditures are $40.677 billion over the contract term from August 20, 2026 through August 20, 2028, with 136 previous awards indicating this is a renewal agreement.
