UNSPSC 10402104: Dried cut apache rose

Dried cut bloom of the apache variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402104 Dried cut apache rose is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its literal scope. The two recent opportunities posted under this code diverge significantly from the purchase of dried cut flowers; instead, they reflect broader environmental services and arts and craft supplies. Pinellas County, Florida is soliciting proposals for environmental planting, monitoring, reporting, and maintenance services covering invasive plant removal, native plant installation, site monitoring, and regulatory-compliant reporting at wetlands and stormwater facilities across a five-year contract term. Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia is issuing a request for bids for arts and craft, hobby, and recreational supplies for its Parks and Recreation Department on an as-needed basis with an expected annual spend of $30,000 to $50,000. The code shows minimal pursuit opportunity for vendors supplying dried cut flowers specifically; state and local governments do not appear to be actively soliciting this commodity through formal procurement channels.

The geographic activity is concentrated in Florida and Georgia based on recent postings. Pinellas County issued its environmental services RFP on June 30, 2025, with proposal due July 29, 2025, requiring State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and Aquatic Category 5A applicator certifications. Columbus Consolidated Government issued its arts and craft supplies request for bids on February 4, 2026, with responses due February 25, 2026, through electronic submission via DemandStar. Neither solicitation names dried cut flowers or florals as a procurement need. The code appears misaligned with actual state and local spending patterns in these jurisdictions, suggesting either miscoding of the opportunities or an absence of genuine market demand for this commodity among state and local buyers.
