UNSPSC 10326017: Fresh cut cleome spinosa

Fresh cut bloom of cleome spinosa flowers

UNSPSC 10326017 Fresh cut cleome spinosa, a Commodity code, nominally names a single flowering plant species, but recent state and local solicitations reveal a significant mismatch between the code's literal scope and actual procurement activity. The most recent opportunities tagged under this code encompass educational supplies cooperative purchasing, tennis center reconstruction, landscape hanging flower baskets, and general plant procurement — none of which center on cleome spinosa specifically. State and local governments are using this code to solicit broad horticultural services and supplies rather than a particular cut flower species. The issuing bodies range across school districts and purchasing cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), county government (Los Alamos County, New Mexico; DeKalb County, Georgia), and municipal procurement (City of Dallas, Texas), suggesting the code functions as a catch-all for botanical and related landscape work at multiple tiers of local government.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and New Mexico, with secondary representation from Georgia. The largest single opportunity is Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's EDACT2628 catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies, due July 30, 2026, covering an estimated $40.677 billion over two years through a cooperative purchasing vehicle serving multiple school districts. Los Alamos County issued RFP26-55 for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance (due June 4, 2026) requiring a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license, with evaluation weighted heavily toward qualifications and experience and design quality. The City of Dallas posted an Informal Solicitation for general plant purchases (due February 3, 2026) requiring new, unopened stock delivered FOB to a specific Dallas address. DeKalb County's ITB 2026-076 for tennis center reconstruction (due July 13, 2026) was tagged under this code but involves IT and low-voltage infrastructure work unrelated to the cleome spinosa commodity. The code shows fragmented, low-volume activity driven primarily by horticultural and landscaping needs rather than specialized cut flower supply.
