UNSPSC 10402210: Dried cut epoca rose

Dried cut bloom of the epoca variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402210 Dried cut epoca rose, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for landscape maintenance services at the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden—concerns ongoing quarterly grounds care, native plant pruning, mulch and pine straw application, irrigation system maintenance, and seasonal plantings for pollinator and rain gardens. The work involves no procurement of dried cut flowers or floral materials, which is the nominal scope of the code. Instead, the opportunity solicits landscape maintenance labor and materials for an established demonstration garden, a category misalignment suggesting either a tagging error in the county's procurement system or a mismatch between the code taxonomy and how Fulton County classifies this work. The solicitation requires contractors to employ a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect, demonstrate knowledge of water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards, and maintain insurance including $1 million Commercial General Liability per occurrence.

Fulton County, Georgia is the sole issuing body evident in the recent-opportunities block. The ITB, posted October 16, 2026, carries a due date of November 30, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on November 4 and a recommended site visit on November 10 for the 0.95-acre scope. The contract term runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals subject to Board of Commissioners approval. Availability of certified MBE and FBE firms is reported at 34.71% and 11.45% respectively for this construction work category. Given the code's nominal scope and the absence of recent opportunities actually procuring dried cut flowers under it, the code shows no current market signal for dried floral material sales to state and local jurisdictions based on available records.
