UNSPSC 10351605: Fresh cut light pink mini or spray carnation

Fresh cut bloom of the light pink mini or spray variety of carnations

UNSPSC 10351605 Fresh cut light pink mini or spray carnation is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show minimal alignment with the nominal scope. Of five recent contract opportunities tagged to this code, only one involves floral products—Los Alamos County's RFP for hanging flower basket design, installation, and maintenance—and that solicitation encompasses mixed plantings (not fresh cut carnations) delivered and maintained across town streetscapes. The other four opportunities cover landscape and irrigation maintenance at demonstration gardens (Fulton County, Georgia), school district-wide landscape and irrigation services (Hillsborough County Public Schools, Florida), IT and low voltage infrastructure for a tennis center reconstruction (DeKalb County, Georgia), and educational supply catalog discounts through a Texas education service center cooperative purchasing vehicle. None of these align with the code's stated product.

Los Alamos County's RFP26-55, posted May 7, 2026 with proposals due June 4, 2026, is the sole representative opportunity with genuine horticultural scope under this code. The County is procuring design, installation, and annual maintenance of up to 144 hanging flower baskets across Central Avenue and numbered streets in the Los Alamos town site, with the contractor responsible for plant material supply, irrigation system monitoring, and quality maintenance. Bidders must hold a New Mexico nursery dealer license and submit pricing for up to seven contract years; evaluation criteria weight Qualifications and Experience at 35 points, Design and Maintenance Solution at 35 points, References at 10 points, and Cost Proposal at 20 points. The County offers local and resident business preferences under New Mexico statute. This code shows little active procurement volume for fresh cut carnations in state and local markets; the mismatch between the code's nominal product and the miscategorized opportunities in the dataset suggests tagging error rather than genuine market demand under this specific Commodity code.
