UNSPSC 10402011: Dried cut highlander rose

Dried cut bloom of the highlander variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402011 Dried cut highlander rose is a Commodity code that in practice captures landscape maintenance and horticultural services for municipal and county demonstration gardens, though the recent activity shows state and local procurement offices tagging complex grounds-care work — including plant cultivation, irrigation management, and habitat installation — under this dried-flower code despite the mismatch with its nominal scope. The work being solicited includes quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens, selective pruning of native plantings, weeding and debris removal, mulch application, pressure washing of hardscape, seasonal color changes in planting beds, integrated pest management, irrigation system startup and shutdown with filter and valve maintenance, and installation of interpretive signage with bat boxes and bird houses. Issuing bodies for this code include county governments pursuing environmental stewardship and demonstration-garden initiatives; the recent activity shows Fulton County, Georgia as a buyer of these services.
