UNSPSC 10332118: Fresh cut lima pompon chrysanthemum

Fresh cut bloom of the lima variety of pompon chrysanthemum flowers

UNSPSC 10332118 Fresh cut lima pompon chrysanthemum is a Commodity code that captures state and local purchasing of ornamental cut flowers, chiefly for municipal landscaping, parks maintenance, and seasonal public-space decoration. The recent solicitations tagged to this code, however, show a sharp mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity: three of four recent opportunities involve hanging flower baskets, educational supplies catalogs, and IT infrastructure — none of which are fresh cut flowers. Only the City of Dallas informal solicitation for plants (IFS 215260, due February 3, 2026) approaches the code's stated scope, requesting new plants in original packaging FOB delivery to Dallas, though the specific flower types are not itemized in the available summary. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span municipal parks departments (Los Alamos County), city procurement offices (Dallas), county governments (DeKalb County), and regional education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), with no clear concentration among repeat buyers in the recent record.

Geographic activity centers on Texas and Georgia, with Los Alamos County, New Mexico representing western activity. Los Alamos County's RFP 26-55 for hanging flower baskets (due June 4, 2026) is the most aligned with ornamental plant procurement, calling for design, installation, and multi-year maintenance of up to 144 baskets across city streets, with vendors required to hold a New Mexico nursery dealer license and manage plant replacement within ten days of installation; the County applies local, resident, and veteran business preferences under state statute. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative catalog-bid solicitation (EDACT2628, due July 30, 2026) is unrelated to cut flowers, spanning educational supplies with an estimated $40.677 billion two-year spend. The code shows limited documented activity aligned to its stated fresh-cut-flower scope and significant tagging drift toward non-flower ornamental services and unrelated categories.
