UNSPSC 10402003: Dried cut carousel rose

Dried cut bloom of the carousel variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402003 Dried cut carousel rose is a Commodity code that captures floristry and ornamental plant materials used in state and local procurement, though the recent opportunities block shows minimal direct purchasing of this specific product line. Instead, the code's recent activity centers on landscape maintenance services for demonstration gardens that include plant material selection, propagation, and seasonal rotation work — effectively treating dried and fresh cut florals as components of broader grounds maintenance contracts rather than standalone procurement items. State and local buying bodies soliciting under this code include county governments and special-purpose landscape districts focused on environmental education, habitat restoration, and demonstration projects. The work involves seasonal planting of annual color beds, perennial selection and maintenance, integrated pest management, irrigation system operation, and interpretive site improvements that incorporate flowering plants and native species as part of themed garden operations.

Fulton County, Georgia posted the primary recent opportunity under this code: ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for South Fulton Maintenance & Operational Demonstration Garden landscape maintenance services, with bids due November 30, 2026 and a pre-bid conference November 4, 2026. The contract covers quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens across a 0.95-acre scope through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals. The contractor must employ a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect, provide selective pruning of native grasses and perennials, perform seasonal color changes in two garden beds and large urn planters, and manage quarterly site walkthroughs with inventory and action planning. The contract goes to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; MBE availability is 34.71% for the construction work category. This represents the sole recent state-local solicitation identified under the code.
