UNSPSC 10402142: Dried cut karusso rose

Dried cut bloom of the karusso variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402142 Dried cut karusso rose is a Commodity code that nominally identifies a specific dried floral product, but the recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect the purchase of dried karusso roses. Fulton County, Georgia solicited landscape maintenance services for a demonstration garden under ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM, posted October 16, 2026, with bids due November 30, 2026. The scope covers quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens including selective pruning, weeding, mulch application (pine straw and uncolored hardwood), irrigation system startup and shutdown with filter cleaning and valve adjustment, pressure washing, seasonal plant color changes in garden beds and urn planters, integrated pest management, and installation of bat boxes and bird houses with interpretive signage. The contractor must employ a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and demonstrate knowledge of water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards. All labor, materials, and equipment are contractor-supplied. Contract runs through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals.

This single recent opportunity suggests the code has been misapplied or represents legacy tagging that no longer reflects actual procurement practice under this UNSPSC category. The work solicited—ongoing landscape maintenance for demonstration gardens with ecological focus—bears no relationship to the purchase of dried karusso roses. No additional recent opportunities in the source validate activity under this code for its nominal commodity. Fulton County is the sole issuing body on record, and Georgia is the only state with documented recent activity. A business development professional should treat this code as showing little relevant recent state and local procurement activity and verify whether opportunities in landscape maintenance, grounds keeping, or native plant management might be tagged under different UNSPSC codes instead.
