UNSPSC 10402136: Dried cut high and magic rose

Dried cut bloom of the high and magic variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402136 Dried cut high and magic rose is a Commodity code nominally covering cut floral products, but the recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows a substantial mismatch with its abstract scope. Fulton County, Georgia's October 2026 ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM solicits landscape maintenance services for the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden—a quarterly grounds-care contract covering native plantings, irrigation systems, mulching, pressure washing, and ecological habitat installation (bat boxes and bird houses). The work involves selective pruning, weeding, seasonal plantings, integrated pest management, and facility upkeep across 0.95 acres of pollinator and rain gardens. The county requires a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and mandates knowledge of water-efficient and wildlife-habitat landscaping. This opportunity does not align with the code's definition of dried cut flowers; it is grounds maintenance and ecological landscape stewardship. The issuing body is a single county purchasing office, and the geographic activity appears limited to Georgia based on available records.

Bids for the Fulton County landscape maintenance ITB are due November 30, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on November 4 and a recommended site visit on November 10. Contract performance runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals subject to Board of Commissioners approval. The county evaluates bids on price, responsiveness, responsibility (bidder experience, technical qualifications, financial capability, past performance), and compliance with Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act requirements and E-Verify. MBE availability for this construction work category is 34.71%; FBE availability is 11.45%. The contractor must furnish all labor, materials, and equipment and carry Workers Compensation, Commercial General Liability (minimum $1 million per occurrence), Business Automobile Liability, Umbrella Liability, and Professional E&O Liability insurance. UNSPSC 10402136 shows little relevant recent activity consistent with its stated scope as a dried floral commodity.
