UNSPSC 10351518: Fresh cut single bloom red carnation

Fresh cut bloom of the red variety of single bloom carnations

UNSPSC 10351518 Fresh cut single bloom red carnation is a Commodity code that covers the supply of fresh-cut carnation flowers to state and local public bodies. Recent solicitations show that government buyers use this code when procuring floral products for landscaping, beautification, and decorative purposes, though activity under this specific code is sparse. The City of Dallas and Los Alamos County have posted opportunities involving plants and flowers in early 2026, but the recent opportunities block shows only one direct solicitation explicitly tied to fresh-cut flowers as a discrete line item — the Dallas purchase-of-plants IFS 215260 from January 2026. Most state and local floral procurement appears bundled into broader educational supplies catalogs or landscaping and grounds-maintenance contracts rather than as a standalone commodity. City parks departments, county recreation agencies, and occasionally school districts appear to be the primary buyers, but the frequency and volume of solicitations targeting fresh-cut carnations specifically remain limited.

Geographic activity is concentrated in Texas and the Southwest, with recent examples from Dallas and Los Alamos County, New Mexico. The City of Dallas posted IFS 215260 on January 28, 2026 with a response deadline of February 3, 2026, requesting new, unopened plants FOB delivery to 1775 California Crossing Road, Dallas. Los Alamos County posted RFP2655 for hanging flower baskets on May 7, 2026, due June 4, 2026, which requires a nursery dealer license and involves multi-year supply and maintenance of flowering plants across town streetscapes. Neither opportunity names a budget value, and both emphasize product quality, delivery terms, and warranty coverage. The code shows episodic rather than consistent demand, suggesting that procurement professionals should monitor regional parks and recreation RFPs and cooperative educational purchasing vehicles for floral components rather than expect regular standalone solicitations at the carnation level.
