UNSPSC 10331620: Fresh cut force pompon chrysanthemum

Fresh cut bloom of the force variety of pompon chrysanthemum flowers

UNSPSC 10331620 Fresh cut force pompon chrysanthemum is a Commodity code that nominally describes ornamental cut flowers, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it span landscape maintenance, irrigation services, educational supplies, IT infrastructure, and floral basket design — revealing significant scope misalignment between the code's narrow name and what procurement offices are actually buying. State and local governments soliciting under this code are pursuing landscape and horticultural services that include grounds maintenance, seasonal plantings, and floral display programs rather than wholesale procurement of cut flowers themselves. The issuing bodies range from county governments (Fulton County, Georgia; DeKalb County, Georgia; Los Alamos County, New Mexico) to school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools, Florida) to regional purchasing cooperatives (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, Texas), indicating that horticultural and grounds-maintenance work reaches across municipal parks, educational facilities, and shared procurement vehicles. Contractors must often hold state-issued nursery or landscape architecture licenses and demonstrate experience with integrated pest management, water-efficient design, and native plant stewardship.

Recent activity centers in Georgia and includes Fulton County's ITB for quarterly landscape maintenance of demonstration gardens and rain gardens (posted October 16, 2026, due November 30, 2026), which requires a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and covers selective pruning, mulch application, irrigation system management, and seasonal color changes across 0.95 acres. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida issued an ITB for landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair services across multiple facilities (posted September 28, 2026, due August 5, 2026), requiring detailed subcontractor and supplier lists and offering preferential consideration to certified minority-owned and small business vendors. Los Alamos County in New Mexico conducted an RFP for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets for town streets (posted May 7, 2026, due June 4, 2026), requiring a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and weighted evaluation on qualifications (35 points), design (35 points), references (10 points), and cost (20 points). A Texas cooperative purchasing vehicle (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative) posted a catalog discount bid for educational activities and supplies (posted June 15, 2026, due July 30, 2026), showing an estimated $40.677 billion in expenditures over two years. The code shows geographic spread across the Southeast and Southwest with minimal recent commodity-level horticultural procurement activity aligned to the code's stated name.
