UNSPSC 10331801: Fresh cut blaze disbud chrysanthemum

Fresh cut bloom of the blaze variety of disbud flowers

UNSPSC 10331801 Fresh cut blaze disbud chrysanthemum is a Commodity code that in practice spans a much broader range of ornamental plant procurement by state and local governments than the narrow code name suggests. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing hanging flower baskets with live plants (including chrysanthemums and related species), bulk potted plants for landscaping and municipal beautification, and individual floral specimens for public grounds maintenance. The issuing bodies include county parks and recreation departments, municipal governments, and regional education service centers that source plants through both direct purchase and multi-year maintenance contracts. Evaluation criteria across these opportunities emphasize plant quality, delivery timing, maintenance capabilities, supplier experience with municipal horticulture standards, and pricing flexibility over multiple contract years.

Los Alamos County (New Mexico) posted RFP26-55 on May 7, 2026 for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across town streets, with proposals due June 4, 2026; the solicitation requires a valid New Mexico nursery dealer license and offers local, resident, Native American, and veteran business preferences. The City of Dallas posted an informal solicitation (IFS 215260) on January 28, 2026 for bulk plant purchase with a February 3, 2026 deadline, requiring FOB delivery to a specified Dallas address with new, unopened stock only. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative, a Texas education service center, posted a catalog discount bid (EDACT2628) on June 15, 2026 with a July 30, 2026 deadline for educational supplies that includes ancillary items; the cooperative represents 136 previous awards and estimates $40.677 billion in total expenditures over a two-year term from August 20, 2026 through August 20, 2028. A fourth recent posting from DeKalb County, Georgia (ITB 2026-076-ITB, posted June 9, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for reconstruction of a tennis center appears to be a mismatch with this code—the scope is IT and low-voltage infrastructure installation, not plant procurement. Activity is concentrated in Texas and the Southwest, with occasional municipal procurement in Georgia.
