UNSPSC 10351507: Fresh cut single bloom hot pink carnation

Fresh cut bloom of the hot pink variety of single bloom carnations

UNSPSC 10351507 Fresh cut single bloom hot pink carnation is a Commodity code that represents ornamental flowering plants and related horticultural products purchased by state and local governments. The recent solicitations tagged to this code reveal a significant mismatch: the code's nominal scope names a specific cut flower variety, yet the actual state and local procurement activity under this code encompasses landscape design, installation, maintenance, and irrigation services for public gardens, parks, and facilities. The work involves quarterly or seasonal maintenance of perennial plantings, rain gardens, pollinator gardens, irrigation system management, mulching, pressure washing, and seasonal color changes rather than the supply of fresh cut flowers. Issuing bodies include county governments (Fulton County and DeKalb County, Georgia; Los Alamos County, New Mexico), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving education service centers (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). The scope reflects substantial ongoing work in grounds maintenance and horticulture support rather than flower commodity purchasing.

Recent opportunities show activity concentrated in the Southeast and Southwest. Fulton County, Georgia posted an ITB for South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden landscape maintenance services (ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM, due November 30, 2026) requiring a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens with selective pruning, mulching, pressure washing, and irrigation system management through December 31, 2027 with optional renewals. Los Alamos County, New Mexico issued an RFP for design, installation, and maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across town streets (RFP2655, due June 4, 2026), requiring a valid nursery dealer license and specifying plant delivery and installation by May 15 annually. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida solicited landscape and irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair services system-wide under ITB 26246ITBMST (due August 5, 2026) with mandatory subcontractor disclosure and preferential consideration for small business enterprises and minority-owned businesses. The code shows little relevant activity tied to cut flower supply itself; procurement professionals should verify the actual commodity or service need before pursuing opportunities tagged to this code.
