UNSPSC 10351520: Fresh cut single bloom yellow carnation

Fresh cut bloom of the yellow variety of single bloom carnations

UNSPSC 10351520 Fresh cut single bloom yellow carnation (Commodity) describes a narrow product line — individual yellow carnation blooms — yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show minimal direct relevance to cut-flower procurement. Instead, the opportunities reflect landscape maintenance, irrigation services, educational supply catalogs, IT infrastructure, and ornamental plantings that may incidentally include flowering plants but do not target carnation sourcing or floral arrangements as a primary deliverable. The issuing bodies span county governments (Fulton County, DeKalb County, Los Alamos County, Hillsborough County), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas), indicating the code has drawn attention from diverse public procurement offices. The code shows little activity concentrated around actual cut-flower supply or wholesale floral distribution to state and local entities.

Geographic activity appears scattered across the Southeast (Georgia, Florida) and Southwest (New Mexico, Texas) based on the recent opportunities, though the activities themselves — landscape installation, educational supplies, tennis center reconstruction — do not align with the commodity's stated scope of fresh cut carnations. Representative recent solicitations include Fulton County's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden landscape maintenance (due November 30, 2026), Hillsborough County Public Schools' ITB 26246ITBMST for landscape and irrigation services (due August 5, 2026), Los Alamos County's RFP26-55 for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance (due June 4, 2026), and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's EDACT2628 for educational activities and supplies (due July 30, 2026, estimated $40.677 billion over two years). The mismatch between the commodity code definition and actual solicitation scope suggests this code receives incidental tagging rather than deliberate classification for cut-flower procurement by state and local buyers.
