UNSPSC 10331602: Fresh cut artist yellow pompon chrysanthemum

Fresh cut bloom of the artist yellow variety of pompon chrysanthemum flowers

UNSPSC 10331602 Fresh cut artist yellow pompon chrysanthemum, a Commodity code, nominally describes cut flowers but the recent state and local opportunities do not reflect procurement of cut chrysanthemums specifically. Instead, the opportunities tagged under this code involve landscape maintenance, irrigation services, and hanging-basket design and maintenance at county parks and school facilities. The actual work state and local governments are buying spans garden bed maintenance and seasonal plant color installation at demonstration gardens, irrigation system repair and startup/shutdown cycles, educational supplies through cooperative purchasing, and multi-year hanging-basket programs requiring live plant material, ongoing maintenance, and design expertise. Issuing bodies include county governments (Fulton County, Georgia; DeKalb County, Georgia; Los Alamos County, New Mexico), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools, Florida), and regional education cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, Texas). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the recent opportunities suggests either a classification error in how opportunities were tagged or that the code is not actively used for its stated purpose in state and local procurement.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia and Florida, with additional procurement in Texas and New Mexico. Representative recent opportunities include Fulton County's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden landscape maintenance, due November 30, 2026, requiring a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens including pruning, mulching, irrigation system management, and wildlife habitat installation; Hillsborough County Public Schools' ITB 26246ITBMST for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair services across school facilities, posted September 28, 2026; and Los Alamos County's RFP 26-55 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets along town streets, with proposals due June 4, 2026 and preference consideration for local and New Mexico resident businesses. The code shows minimal recent activity specifically for cut chrysanthemums; opportunities appear misclassified or reflect a significant divergence from the commodity code's intended scope.
