UNSPSC 10401907: Dried cut climax rose

Dried cut bloom of the climax variety of rose

UNSPSC 10401907 Dried cut climax rose is a Commodity code that captures landscape maintenance and horticultural services for municipal demonstration gardens and public grounds, based on recent state and local procurement activity. The scope of work under this code in practice extends well beyond the narrow product name to include quarterly maintenance of established pollinator and rain gardens, selective pruning and fertilization of native plantings, mulching and debris removal, irrigation system seasonal management (startup, shutdown, filter cleaning, valve and head adjustment), pressure washing of hardscape features, integrated pest management, and installation of wildlife habitat features such as bat boxes and bird houses with interpretive signage. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily county departments and park or facilities authorities managing environmental demonstration projects and public green infrastructure. The work requires specialized qualifications — bidders must employ licensed landscape architects and demonstrate knowledge of water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards — and carries standard construction insurance requirements including Commercial General Liability ($1 million minimum per occurrence) and Professional E&O Liability coverage.

Fulton County, Georgia represents the primary recent activity. The county posted ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM on October 16, 2026, soliciting landscape maintenance services for the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden with a response deadline of November 30, 2026; a pre-bid conference is scheduled for November 4 and a site visit recommended for November 10 to assess the 0.95-acre scope. The contract term runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals subject to Board of Commissioners approval. Award will go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The solicitation identifies certified MBE firm availability at 34.71% and FBE firm availability at 11.45% for this category, signaling potential set-aside or preference opportunities.
